Look for their fins splitting the water and at least here they tend to jump out of the water a lot, maybe to check for anglers

if i see they in an area i can fish how do i cast without spoking them and compleatly ruining my chances of catching

Some like spooking them by throwing bait out (if they are close enough) and then casting. I have had luck baiting and then casting as well as in the reverse order so I'm not convinced it matters.

 

 

The other day I threw a handful of groundbait out, then hit my spot dead on with a cast... I didn't even have a chance to let my drag off from the cast and set my rod up before a biggun broke my hooklink on a quick run.
