Mr Hunters yes the color on all fish fade as they sit. Look at any fish pic of colorful fish taken as they come out of the water, they are vibrant. The same fish will look dull hours later after the blood drains from their skin. I think that is why Jim's fish look light in the pic.

tynan,
I think what piemma was referring to with the light colored striper is that it is a cape striper......bass from the cape seem to have lighter coloring due to the fact of what is under the fish as they swim...ie sand, beaches .....as opposed to a newport, or a gansett fish which are clearly darker because of the rocks that are below them. If you look at the two fish, the one on the left is a lot lighter than the one on the right....
picture was taken after the second one was landed....approximately 15 minutes after the first one wasd caught...
If I have this wrong Paul, chime in when you read this
