I got that
If it's reference art I would assume you are looking for ideas, motion, composition etc... I'd find some art of any old baitfish and cut and paste an image of a striper over whatever is in the original.
What indicates that it's a striper or herring is in the details anyway.
At least that's how I would do it. Sounds like an interesting project. Good luck!
