Pierre, re kraai nes ... Suffix round braid aka "Casting Braid" wound onto the spool under slight tension is the way to go my friend
Don't get the flat or angular braids ... they suck.

Hahaha, ja no not that bad huh, it’s a Penn500 and I cant tell you the name of the rod now
Experienced a similar situatiuon last year. Took Delboy to the coast last July after telling him about "the shad run". Shad were thick 63 m out in a 32 knot westerly wind. Sat on the beach and watched the sard and spoon guy's catch.
Bought a 10" Kingfisher 3 piece rod and a bag of spoons and a buff.
The good old Jigmaster - those babies cast major big Kraaineste but must still be the number one reel with wich every R&S fisherman started out with. Have two of them myself.
Go and buy yourself the Daiwa Sealine 30 and put it on a Shimano Exage 10 or 11 footer - best light setup ever - from spinning to casting for a galjoen in the white water. Are you going out on Wednesdaymorning? - would like to maybe join you. Otherwise I'm of to Macassar again to pump some Maanskynwurm and try to catch a galjoen or belman.
Anyone need a fishing partner, I will brink my spin stick as well

You can join any time at Macassar, not a spinning spot. Maybe we must organise a trippie to the reefs around Strand for Wednesday or over the weekend. Low tide is early morning - should be perfect if the weather permits.
I see the wind is dropping tomorrow, its blasting right now. not too sure if i will still be going, but i might just, If you PM me then i'll give you a ring in the morning then we can chat about it, would be nice to meet up and get some fish, plenty of Elf around
cheers
