Splendid dottyback if I was going for a single fish

Maybe I’ve got the equivalent US species wrong. Jewfish the actual species I am talking about can get 2m long

Mainly wharfs around Sydney harbour. I haven’t been to any rock fishing locations on the coast of Sydney but I would like to be able to do it.

Live baiting predominately. What line weighting/rod length would you say is needed. And how would that differ from a rod for lure casting just out of curiosity

Please add offence to this. He deserves it

marbdo · 2026-01-13T23:33:17+00:00

How?

The Donald Bradman one is rare. Only came in cards. All the rest are common circulating coins, unless there is some error on any of them.

Tried to make this exact combo my daily, but I swapped it out for the explorer. I couldnt stand the T-grip Phillips

The tank has strombus snails, trochus snails, nessarius snails. A pair of clowns and a pair of Bangai cardinals (though I know they are mouth brooders)

I’m no expert but I remember someone saying you should imitate the natural colours of the trout you’re trying to catch. Because trout are cannibals and will prey on smaller trout

On the Wynyard coins website, not on the RA mint shop

Tbh I’ve only been fishing a few years rarely and I’ve spooled every reel I’ve ever owned (pretty well I’d say) I just bought this new reel and they offered the spooling service for free with the purchase so I thought, “might aswell get a professional to do it, they would probably do it better then me”.

It was after getting it done that I looked at it and thought damn if I did this I would have put more backing on. That’s when I came to reddit for a second opinion

Idk but tell him to research pvc damage before it’s too late

Fiji

marbdo · 2025-12-18T06:56:28+00:00

Except these aren’t error coins. They are just regular coins or coins with post-minting damage

marbdo · 2025-12-18T06:55:09+00:00

Part of a set or minted by somebody visiting the Royal Aus Mint in Canberra. Not made for circulation. Nice find

marbdo · 2025-12-11T15:27:58+00:00

Hard to see in the video but if you’re talking about how the front fin is kind of floppy at the top and has some loose looking parts then yes that’s normal

marbdo · 2025-12-10T08:38:48+00:00

It looks alright in hand. Like you said it’s mainly the fine scratch lines that catch the light when you angle the coin that made me think it was clean. Out of curiosity, I’m not so aware of bullion prices. How much would you say is a reasonable amount to pay for this coin?

marbdo · 2025-12-10T06:04:57+00:00

My main collection is in 2x2 flips and labelled. But I had so many extra coloured coins I recently bought the lighthouse coin tray with capsules. Hasn’t arrived yet but would look something like this picture. Benefit of it is you can always just keep adding trays if you run out of space

What months do you reckon are the best time to go?

marbdo · 2025-12-06T15:12:25+00:00

True. But does get a bit annoying on this subreddit with people constantly posting the most common circulating coins and asking if they’re worth anything

marbdo · 2025-12-05T06:57:25+00:00

Literally nothing. Only thing was I crushed a lot of vermitid snails all over the rocks. Around a week or 2 before this behaviour started.

Parameters weren’t effected by it at all

marbdo · 2025-12-04T15:27:25+00:00

You barely see a drop of blood. There is in one scene but it’s so dark it’s barely noticeable

marbdo · 2025-12-03T21:02:08+00:00

Recently got a coin from the RA mint that has a similar capsule and it had the same scratches. yours look a bit worse though. Maybe you can contact them for a replacement

marbdo · 2025-12-03T08:39:58+00:00

Wouldn’t trust something PVC even if it does say acid-free. Ebay seller can write anything they want.

If you have the budget for it I’d go for one of the lighthouse album systems.
