The Shimano RX 120 with spiffy Quickfire action and some kind of removable thing for the line. Lotta knobs, and some have settings.
Got it at an estate sale along with a pole as kind of an extra. Little reel, said "Shimano" and I know absolutely nothing about it.

I think I had one. Years ago.
Edit:Nope. Dug it out and it is a Shimano TX 130Q Quickfire. I had mine in 1989 when I caught my biggest salmon off Les Davis Pier. 19.5 pounds.
Well actually I still have it and the rod I used.

The drag is on the rear of the reel. It has a fighting drag lever at the rear that one adjust just a little or more drag will fighting the fish.
The lever by the bailer is a lever for flipping the bailer but the line is right there so it is a one handed motion.
