    Rare Older Daiwa Procaster PR733?

    Came across this Daiwa Procaster PR733 reel today at a sale; did not think much about it as it was filthy but was interested in the rod it was on. Cleaned it up and it is near perfect and in super smooth working condition. Have seen plenty of old Protesters ,like PT33, but started researching and can't find anything about this reel? None sold on EBay in last year, no old reviews,; nothing other than schematics on Mike's Reel Repair. It's 7.1:1 gear ratio, fast for that era and has. "flipping" switch. Made in Japan. Anybody ever seen one?
    May just have to fish it?

    Got one new for a gift long time ago . Mounted on an old All Star FR1 flippin stick. Both vintage. Works fine, for the amount of flippin I do. Newer reels are much nicer if you are casting, works great for flippin.
