I don't have a picture, but if you've seen one of these, they seem to be unique, so my description should help. 

 

There are/were small spincast reels with triggers on the front that were meant to be used like spinning reels. Right, so you're with me so far. These aren't unique, several manufacturers make them. I'm looking for a specific one, though. The one I'm talking about had some sort of exposed gear in the back, that looked similar to a drag star. I don't know if it was something to do with the retrieve handle, or if it was actually the drag system, but I've been looking around and can't find this thing. Does anyone know what I'm talking about here?

Yeah, I'm talking about underspin reels, but I'm looking for a specific one that I've seen before. It has some kind of exposed gear at the back of the reel where you'd expect to see the thumb button on a normal spincast.

Google ‘Underspin rear drag’  and you may find it.

Well Scott you can lead a horse to water.

I've spent hours on Google Images with literally dozens of keywords, and I've checked every online retailer I can find. Like I said in the original post and in my second comment, I'm looking for a very specific underspin reel that has an exposed gear at the back. No, it is not something like this: https://cdn.roysbaitandtackle.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Daiwa_Underspin_US120XD-CP.jpg

 

The exposed gear on the back is vertical and looks like a standard star drag.

 

This is from my first post:

I didn't come here looking for someone to do research for me. I've looked for weeks, and after going through Google Images for what felt like the hundredth time, I came here looking for someone who recognized the exact reel that I'm talking about. If you can't think of a reel you've seen that fits the description I've given you, then there's no need to comment. You don't have to comprehend what's going on -- I don't really care.
