Quick take
Compact round conventional reel built for vertical jigging at depth, with a fast 7.1 gear ratio and light weight.
This is the right-handed Red Fang IC 150H, a compact round baitcasting reel from Daiwa with a 7.1:1 gear ratio that pulls in about 80 cm of line per handle turn. It weighs 8.1 oz and carries 6 ball bearings and 1 roller bearing, with a 5.1-inch handle and a 5 kg maximum drag. Spooled with braid, it holds roughly 400 m of 1-number PE, which suits light jigging and soft bait work.
