I have seen color variations that run from almost pale silver to very dark like this fine fish.  The recent batch I've been catching look almost like giant female bluegills. Aside from dorsal fin, tail and pectoral fin coloration, most anglers would call them just big female bluegills...even the pond owner. Here are a few pics...

That HBG is much darker than the ones I have in my pond.

 

Very nice looking fish.
