Just taking a guess that your problem is not the colors, but not fishing in the right places at the right times. I'm a long ways from Oregon, but I can't understand why bass behavior there would be so different from other states. You can use anything in the rain that you can use in dry weather; however, I love to start with topwaters, like buzzbaits.

In your soft plastics, I don't think you can go wrong with basic colors like blacks, pumpkinseeds and watermelons.

Also have an assortment of crankbaits and spinnerbaits that are appropriate for the conditions there. I truly believe that if you can find 'em, you can catch 'em. Good luck.

I caught a lot of fish up there on a hand pour 4" straight tail worm, pop R, tube, crankbait, jig, 4" slug-go, in the winter a lot of guys use a jigging spoon summer a wacky rig works well up there also.

In the rain I would start with a gold topwater and go from there.
