Personally, I'm not a huge believer in matching a baitfish exactly. I think they look cool, but when/where I fish it doesn't seem to help to have an exact copy of the color scheme. For example, on the spring herring run that I fish, my best colors are solid black or solid white in swimmers, and yellow/white for poppers. One season I did extremely well on gold foil/black back/orange belly bombers during the herring run, but never since that season. I think if you get something somewhat close, you will do well. Fancy paint jobs do more to sell the plug than to catch the fish. It goes back to my response in the other thread, how you work the plug pays out better than how the plug looks.
