Slightly Rose Pearl makes the color alive.

That's a nice color.

Igor, when you are shooting a picture of anything but clear and or white, try using a white background or lay the subject on the mold. I like using a paper towel or a soft, white, terry cloth towel. A light gray surface also works. The contrast is way stronger when white or gray or mold metal is used.

Is that better?

The background color is great but the lighting leave a lot to be desdired. You apparently are shooting the pics indoors? Try using natural light outside. If you get too many issues with glare or shadows, try moving the subject into a shaded area but shoot facing the light so that nothing gets between the camera and the plastic. If you shoot indoors out of need, try aiming a light down from above the bait so the colors and the inside effects of the plastic get lit up too.

Your baits look great but the lightning really hinders showing their true beauty.

Keep at it, you'll get it down quick.
