If you'd like an example of what a real contemporary minefield looked like, in Strike from the Sea by Iain Ballantyne there's a map of the Iraqi minefields in the northern Gulf and the extent of the land-based Silkworm missile coverage over them.
There's also some theoretical examples in Soviet Naval Tactics by Milan Vego.
Finally, in Submarine Warfare in the Arctic: Option or Illusion? by Mark Sakitt, there's a map showing a Soviet intelligence estimate of a planned location of a CAPTOR minefield in the GIUK gap and how it was covered by surface ships and submarines.
