Herring

This may come as a strange request, but does anyone have a decent color photo of a Herring? Not a plug, but a actual fish picture.

I have seen many plugs called Herring paterns and when trying to duplicate the colors closely many don't come close.

Google automatically defaults to WEB search, click on IMAGES search instead, then enter "blueback herring", "Alewife herring" or whatever you desire.
some stuff is still junk, but its real easy to sift thru it, lots of pictures there..
