I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

7

3,4

dab hand

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'expert' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'fish fingers?' is the wordplay.
'fish' becomes 'dab' (dab is a type of fish).
'fingers?' becomes 'hand' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'dab'+'hand'='DAB HAND'

'producing' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dab hand that I've seen before include "An informal expert such as band had" , "Past master" , "Barely wash" , "cursory wash?" .)
