This link is a good tutorial on fishing a whole herring behind a flasher.

I rig a little different than shown in the tutorial. Not as much work and IMHO the herring lasts longer. And it does not use that expensive crow bar hook, although I have a bunch and still use them. Next time I rig some up I will take a photo and post.
Commercial trolling methods are basically the same all up and down the Pacific Coast. California, Oregon, Washington, B.C. and Alaskan guys use similar methods with a few "secrets" thrown in to confuse the opposition.
