The Newell will have a letter in front of the 220-5, possibly a S or a G or maybe a P if your lucky. I have cycled through multiple 220's and have liked them all, I especially like the P series with the aluminum spool and handle I own three of them. I don't like them for slinging eels though, no spool control at all. I really like the Penn 525 Mag reels from back in my eel slinging days on a seven or eight foot rod. The black 6500Cl is also a nice reel if you can get one. If the Newell is a P series and you don't want it let me know, I may trade you a 525 0r a 6500CL for it.
