Sunfish color

Can anyone here paint a sun perch or pumkinseed color similar to this:

That would be great on a crank or jerkbait around here. That is most of the forage.

I would not try to match that pic exact.   I prefer to have my bait fish pattern to have similar colors but look a little different to stand out from the forage in the area.   I think that's an edge to getting bit.

bnwcrankin would be your best bet for a very close reproduction of the pic.    I think he has posted some pics of that particular sunfish.
