Since you are good at tying buggers I would suggest kelly green and black. Make them large #4's & #2's. Black for Spring & kelly green for Chum. For Coho rolled muddler (Not muddler minnow there is a difference) coho blue is another good pattern. There are other patterns but these simple patterns should do it for you.

it's not a coho muddler, it's just a rolled muddler.....
