Solitario Lupo suggested that my "almost" gold goldfish looked like a Koi, and that got me to searching online for Koi color patterns. It appears that Koi can be almost any color whatsoever, so I used the first picture as a model for my Koi lure. 12" basswood, one rattle chamber, plastic lip. Of course the holographic siding and red eyes are something of an embellishment on the model.

For reasons I don't understand the reference picture does not show up so I deleted it. For the interested viewer it's white, orange, and black.

It certainly looks like koi I have seen in ponds.
