Regarding the NMFS fish images:

I think some of the images you are referring to are available on the web at

<http://kingfish.ssp.nmfs.gov/fish.html>

The title of this document suggests that it concentrates on southeast fishes. There 
may be other regions in another location, but I haven't checked.
