I have fished area 9 three times since it opened four of us got our limit every time we used a green hotspot flasher and 18 - 24 inches of leader with a coyote spoon I like the green and glow my fishing buddy switches to a couple different colors all with some kind of green. We troll in about 90 - 120 feet of water and you want to be right on the bottom, if your downrigger ball doesn't bounce every once in awhile you aren't deep enough. We have fished both side of possesion and other people I have heard have done well at admiralty inlet.
