I am thinking about pulling around some super baits... do people recommend a flasher?

I am thinking I am going to launch on the Oregon side I am wondering about depth...

Should I be fishing relatively close to shore in say 40 feet of water... or should I get out into deeper areas?

I found this chart and am hoping to get some insight:

Any advise as to should I try and get down as deep as possible or try and target surface or suspending fish?


Again any help is appreciated!
