You should try the flats in and around "Pig Island" ... roughly opposite Terrara ?
Should be able to find some nice areas to fish there ....

Here is some footage from a trip back in 2013 to Neptune Island off of Pt. Lincoln Sth Australia, home of some Big Great Whites.

If the Kings are not at Pt. Perp .... head towards Currarong, to a place called "Devils George" ....
Troll or live bait about 50 -90 metres away from the platform !!!! Big Kingies, used to live there ....
Oh, and Hang On !!!

Thanks

More than likely a damn "Bull Shark"
Close relative to the GW's, but there has been Bull Shark attacks in Sydney Harbour before ...
Anyone remember the Navy Clearance Diver that got attacked and lost limbs ......
We get a LOT of GW's down here in S.A .... and if it was that big, I doubt very much, that the lady would be talking to reporters !!!!
Just MY observations from 'interstate' !!
Here is one a bit smaller than described, that hung around the boat in less than 4 metres of water....

kAs-09 , I haven't tried using these hooks , yet ... I have them, sitting in my jig making box of tricks,
At the moment, I am trying out the Owner Gorilla Live Bait Hooks as Assist Hooks....
So far so good....
I use Kevlar Cord( Mustard Colour ), not the 'Red Assist Cord'.
I have 70lb, 100lb and 400lb cord, the heavier is hard to get through the eye once, trying to put through twice.
I find it to be very strong, have had no bite through's ...again , yet ...... still use heatshrink over the eye section when finishing off ...
Only been using these for Snapper so far ....

Should be able to take that to any "reasonable" tackle shop that has a resident rod builder, and get that fixed,
it will end up 2 piece, but usable!! and a keeper ....

Nothing High Speed ie over 6.x:1
Ideally anything from 4.x:1 to 5.0:1
Just like @brett01 said ... concentrate on a good drag set up !!

Another fault is the reel may not be meant to take braid .....
Some 'older' model reels, do not take to braided lines at all .....
It all comes down to the way the reel, lays the braid onto the spool ....
Also, try closing your bail over as soon as the lure hits the water .....or grabbing the braid with your fingers. this can help.
Lots of reasons for 'wind-knots' out there , but line tension and lay are the two most likely culprits.

You can also try using a small stinger rig trailing the plastic, you will hook more squid this way , if they are chasing your plastics !!
Just use a treble on a small length of leader, and attach a swivel to it, clip it above the jig head !!!
Then if the Squids disappear, unclip it !!!

Always worth throwing a big slimie out when in / around the Opening of JB ...
Fished there in the 80's and 90's ... what a cracker of a place !!!!

Plenty of YouTube on how to use these things ..
They do come with a HUGE amount of hype around the design and useage ..
In the videos, the swim action looks pretty cool .....

Knots to your lures can depend on what action the lure / or what you want the lure to do .....
Uni knot straight to the lure for the higher speed retrieve ones ...
The "Rapala" Loop Knot if your lure has / or you want plenty of movement / action from it .....
Both are very easy simple knots to master ....
