Looks for different reels (5)
I believe the answer is:
leers
'looks' is the definition.
(I know this)
'different reels' is the wordplay.
'different' is an anagram indicator (letters placed in a different order).
'reels' anagrammed gives 'LEERS'.
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for leers that I've seen before include "Ogles" , "Reels (anag.)" , "Looks lasciviously" , "Lecherous looks" .)
