I have had it attack several lures, and had it break my line once. I hear there is a big one lurking in Josaiahs Bay aswell.

There are several large resident 'cudas in outlaying bays that are quite used to people, and hover around certain regulat charter boats looking for a handout. "Barry" over at Cooper Island, a 5'+ fish with an unusually dark colouration, is known for gulping back left-over chicken legs with aplomb, cruising around the snorkellers.
