Mark Harris:
Demersal fish literally means those that feed on the bottom so includes things like flatfish and many sharks. Recreational anglers usually use the term to apply to the type of fish Brandon mentions.

Mahmoud Salem:
Dear Mark, dear Brandon
Thanks a lot for your advice, I'll try with slow technique, do you know of any guiding video?
I'll add a few inchiku &  madai jigs, already got a few Williamsons and upgraded the hooks from the tiny stocks

A couple more questions
After dropping the jig, would you recommend staying on bottom(very risky with bottom hook on these jigs) or a few feet of the bottom or more, I believe higher might make the lure more exposed to fish at bigger distance as I won't be jigging the water column
Also which bags do you recommend for storing these types of lures, currently I'm using ones like these used for trolling skirts

Regards
Mahmoud

Brandon Khoo:
Look up lucanus jigs or inchiku on youtube. The problem is I suspect these lures are at their best when they are closest to where you will lose them. I keep them in hard plastic containers like tupperwares
