Mark,

Try this link...... [www.collectorscovey.com]

The artwork is of a Flounder, a related species separated by only about 400-lbs in some cases (lol). You might be able to get enough detail to use.

Hope it helps....Bret

Thanks guys
I might be able to use the flounder pictures I want to get a little of the white side of the Halibut into the weave.
Thanks to all Mark Crouse
I am still searching because I know there is a picture out there, but not West Virginia.

Mark - search for "Summer Flounder", "Fluke", flounder as well. I have a tee shirt with an action shot of a Fluke with it's mouth open coming off teh bottom ready to strike soem baitfish. That does have the white side showing a bit.

When I get home from work, I'll look on some of the North East fishing sites to see if I can find a suitable image of a feeding Fluke which you can use - I'm sure there are a few out there as I've seen them on shirts for Tournaments & such.

Can't scan it, but I could photograph it. If I remember I will do this, and send it to you Monday, as I annot do any photography on my home PC - i'm fortunate it allows me to get on the interent withough crashing, photos are pushing it.

It's a Guy Harvey shirt, so maybe I'll find it on teh interent somewhere (also on this shirt are Weakfish, Blues & Striped Bass)
