queensland Where are the decent snapper

[Guest]

Thought I would give one of my snapper spots a visit this afternoon , was picturing in my head a couple good ones to drag me out of my slump. Took some fresh perfect baits and still couldn't get past the squire in the 40's landed 9 in total . You know your prawns are big when your using a 7/0 circle hook just so you can get hook exposure ( prawns on steroids ) . I don't know what's worse giving up the cigs or failing with the fish.

Hey Sneaky

I would still be happy with that, and I think you still have a good spot! Good work on the snaps.

Cheers Hamish

P.S. Giving up the cigs is a good thing, failing with the fish... Not so much  (Actually you can hardly call that a fail!).

Yep, I couldn't call that a fail either

Hope your doing better in yepoon than I'm doing here. It's weird going fishing without cigs so I'm probably just getting impatient with the fish.

Well, I'm back now. I say I probably would've tied with you for fishing. Lol. There are some reports up in the thread, "Yippee Yeppoon" (Reports Are Added). 

I woke up at 3:50AM this morning, tried a new spot, and got diddly squat but the reports will be titled "Brisbane River Session #69, #70, and #71".

Yeah maybe  .

If you are having withdrawals that are making you grumpy or anxious please please spend $20 and buy Allan Carr's book The Easy Way.  I seriously gave up smoking with barely a hint of withdrawal.  It doesn't take long to read and you can read it even if you have already stopped.  What can you lose?  It is the cost of less than half a pack.

Thanks Kat , Do I buy that in a book store or off the internet ? I'm going mad and ready to choke someone , on thursday i was stuck in trafric on the logan motorway i got that bad I was ready to start biting tyres ( lucky I didn't the police might have shot me too )

[Kat]

Ha ha.  You can buy it in store or online - I got it to read on my Kindle - but I have seen it at my local bookshop too.  I will PM you a link for an online one - there are a few versions so it can be confusing.  Don't put off reading it!  Honestly it was fantastic and I really didn't have any bad moods or barely any cravings.

That book worked for me. 

22yrs and gave up during the read.

He tells you to keep smoking while you read. The little gremlin has a hold of you. 

Half way though I couldn't take a drag. Tasted like crap and the urge from then on had disappeared. It's a self hypnosis. Repeat repeat repeat. 

 

I think you have to really want to stop though. 

Most people say they want to give up but in reality they don't, hence the relapsing that occures all to often. 

I loved the bloody things. I was a pack and a half of winny blue a day. Pure poison. Get it in ya, but my body had had enough. 

 

That book pulled me up within 3 days. 

Nearly 10yrs and not one urge to light up. Even with a few drinks. 

Worth a try. 

Saved me well over 100k. It's how I have a boat today.  

 

 

As for the snapps. 

They're out there still.

Yeah I have my daughter hunting it down if I download it on the phone i will either lose my phone or break it im a shocker with phones. I had 1 this morning with my coffee the wife wasn't happy but it was pretty good . 

[ellicat]

I gave up when I read Junky's post. Going well so far.
