Where to find jewfish an how to catch them.

Using side imaging to identify areas jewfish will hunt an what technique I use to catch them.

[@jefob]

Great video! Thanks for being open about what works! Been chasing a Jew for a while so hopefully this helps now! Keep up the good videos 🤙🏻

[@Lowysfishing]

Hey Jeff, they are a tough fish to catch no doubt so hopefully the info can get u closer to catching 1. Good luck out there 👍

[@petersimpson4916]

Great tips Andrew👍👍 I used my new sounder today for the first time. I saw these same things you're showing happening on my screen a bit, so your video could'nt have come at a better time for me. I got a small mulloway early, then only small flattys and reds after that. I spent more time experimenting randomly with different settings than I did fishing. Glad I got it though.

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks Peter at least u have it now an can see more of whats going on down there. An even a small mulloways still a mulloway they all count 👍

[@RTom217]

First time I've seen someone talk about these structures on the lake. I've come across many, and fished them a little but will spend some more time focussing on them now. I reckon they're the only real natural structure in deeper water through the lake. Are they cockle beds?? I have pulled up a shell before from one of them. Would be interesting to dive on them or get some underwater footage.

[@Lowysfishing]

Yer im sure there cockle beds Tom. Good places to fish in general but they hold fish so always a chance bigger fish will visit. Id say that all through the lake they would b found its just a matter of looking around the different areas 👍

[@RR-bm6od]

Hi Lowy. When looking for spots, what speed are you going for your sounder to pick up a clear picture

[@Lowysfishing]

@@RR-bm6od i just cruise when im using the side imagining usually under 10kph , mine will read bottom and find structure going 40kph but its not as clear as when i just idle along. An the slower u go the better the quality of sounding u get back which makes identifying the bottom much easier. An its much easier to see fish aswell an bait schools when going slower.

[@MattsFishingEscapes]

Great vid mate... I'm really trying to get those vibes working for me here in SA

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks Matty. I definitely think they will work there for you. I will just have to watch your videos to find out 🙌

[@jeffgrow7570]

Best bait for the Jewfish is a one dollar bill

[@Lowysfishing]

I wish chasing them only cost 1 dollar 👍

[@JohnSmith-wq8jn]

Inspired me to get my sounder working again and went and spot locked on a spot I caught one before, plenty of bait and fish on the sounder drops down from like 5-10m. I don't have side scan though which sucks, i got a nice pan snapper flathead and then got busted off by a big tailor 🙄😭 no jew today but feel confident on the spot with a bit of persistence. Cheers mate

[@Lowysfishing]

Awesome John. At least u got out an caught some fish. I had the same a trip or so back the tailor were a menice 😩 lost a lure aswell. An as long as your catching other fish it passes time until u get onto that jewy 👍

[@matthewwheatley1645]

Merry Christmas mate, thanks for sharing some awesome content and info. Can I ask what brand and model the new landing net is?

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks Matthew merry xmas 🎄 its a jarvis walker deluxe 120cm heavy duty landing net. Its deep enough netting so the jew or big flattys dont jump back out an at least il fit the whole fish inside this 1 🙌

[@andrewburrell5814]

Thanks again for the indepth information we all appreciate your tips and knowledge.

[@Lowysfishing]

Cheers Andrew lets hope it helps get those jew in your boat. Might b a bit crowded at holiday time but i find its the best time of year to scan around an find some new ground. Never hurts to have heaps of marks in the sounder gives u more options when its windy, which is most days 😂

[@andrewburrell5814]

@@Lowysfishing sure does I spend alot of time looking for structure. I've got a few marks similar to that you have shown will rises. I will definitely try them next time.

[@Lowysfishing]

@@andrewburrell5814 take note of what part of the tide it is aswell an if u c baitfish etc more information u have the easier it gets.

[@andrewburrell5814]

@@Lowysfishing thank you it all helps I have also found a few things that I'm doing wrong from watching your videos. I appreciate your help.

[@andeeaye]

Great videos mate. Gotta love Aussie fishing content :)

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks Andy appreciate it. Im still trying to get my head around all the editing 😂 the fishing part is alot easier.

[@CrebosFishingAdventures]

Hi Lowy ... thanks for sharing and the tips really appreciate it my friend 😀 , your the jewy whisperer

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks Crebo, i dont mind giving out some tips hopefully they help. An im probly just lucky more than anything 😂😂 Also i get to spend a good amount of time out there an that is the best way to catch anything.

[@stephensmith4831]

Andrew, you're killing it. You do know I like eating fish. Lol, too much catching and releasing, not enough feeding the family.

[@Lowysfishing]

😂 i will keep u some then soon.

[@JohnSmith-wq8jn]

Great video thanks for the tips, I need to buy a new sounder. Mine broke. been fishing blind with alot of disappointment 😞

[@Lowysfishing]

No worries John. No sounder makes it very hard thats forsure. Been through that a few times over the years myself when they break.

[@ianfraser7612]

Great video just bought a boat moored in the lake and exploring where and how to catch fish.

[@Lowysfishing]

Thats awesome mate, its a big place with lots of good areas to fish. Anywhere u can find a good showing of baitfish aswell will produce some bites 👍

[@LeighBrown-i3t]

Hey mate, cheers for the awesome vids. What sounder are u running.

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks glad u liked them. Its a lowrance elite ti 2 9inch 👍

[@patrickboyle6660]

Hey Lowy are there as many in the north area of the lake?

[@Lowysfishing]

I haven't really looked but im definitely curious to go an sound around there. Wangi has some but thats as far as iv checked. There would have to be something that way i will go 4 a look when the wind isnt terrible.

[@Nightlifeimages]

Great video. Looks like I'll be trying some transam shortly

[@Lowysfishing]

They work good 👍 i used a colour called jungle a week ago for about half hour,caught 4 fish an lost a jew on it. Unfortunately an the lure with the jew i need to get more of that colour i have a good feeling about it.

[@Nightlifeimages]

@@Lowysfishing yeah, they are $29 at Freddie's and the big retails will price match them. I'll pick some up during the week.

[@Lowysfishing]

@@Nightlifeimages that’s alright then 😃

[@lindahodge4297]

Great info mate do you upgrade the hooks on your trans ive had a terrible run with the hooks lost some good fish because of them otherwise there awesome

[@Lowysfishing]

No i just leave the standard hooks on there as im only using 16lb braid. If they get bent then i replace them..If im fishing around bridges with them i swap the hooks out for some strongers hooks though as il use a much heavier drag an usually 20lb braid.

[@XavierGeorgebaker]

How fast do you go to look for them?

[@Lowysfishing]

If its calm i can find the cockle beds going 20 kph but i like going slower to look for baitfish aswell about 6-10 kph mate 👍

[@jpavila9967]

great video mate...do you do charters? love your work

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks mate i thought id just show people what i look for when finding a place that would most likely hold or have jewys around it at some point in the day. An i dont do charters at this point but it could happen down the track 👍
