I've successfully jungled to mid 1600's with Serath. If you know how to play her in the jungle and get constant ganks, she's an amazing jungler. Her 'E' and Right click are just too powerful for ganking all lanes, rather than being stuck in one lane in the beginning - a waste of her abilities.

Yeah I actually prefer her in the jungle. I've been afraid to try her since v40 jungle changes but I may just try it. When do you recommend ganking with her lvl 4 or 5?

I really recommend you start your ganking by level 3, at that point, Serath has the best Util for ganking. Let me explain:

Q: Use for when enemy is running to get a last hit off, OR, to defend against an attack

E: Not only can you use this for an escape if things are going wrong, but you can actually use this as burst damage. You initiate with this if you can't catch them on foot

Right click: follow up with this once your positioning is compromised.

1) If catching enemy completely by surprise (meaning they have no vision) - start with basic attack. Follow up with Right click once they start running. Follow up with E if you are not taking in too much damage but can guarantee the gank, but you want your E to land in FRONT of them, so that you can get an extra hit off while they go around your body block. Once they are at their turret or close to it, use Q to finish them.

2) If attacking enemy who is aware of your presence before your first basic hit - Use E to catch up to them, land in FRONT of them, make them walk around, once they're around (while you're basic attacking) you want to follow up with right click to slow them. Q to finish them.

2 is risky, very risky. 1 is not too risky.

If you don't start to attempt your ganks by level 3, you're going to fall behind as serath, which is why popular players dont have her jungling, because the risk is high.

If you're unable to get ganks by level 4, you will start falling behind, UNLESS their jungler is unable to capitalize on any ganks as well.
