Caught this bass on a Torpedo at about 830 am at a local farm pond with my father-in-law. Ended up catching about 9 or so but this was the biggest. The bite died down once it started getting hot so we left. But I was really excited about this one. I had a lot to take the lure all the way under the water but spit it out without getting hooked somehow. I didnt have a scale but I think the bass weighed around 3 lbs.

nice one......

the topwater bite just cant be beat IMO.

Nice fish!  Congratulations.

 Nice fish!! Love those Torpedos!!!!! Also, when you missed the fish, did they spit the bait before you set the hook, or did you just miss 'em?? If you just missed 'em, they mighta been dinks.......Mighta been. But ya got a good three pounder there!!!!

Yeah I was thinking they could have been dinks but it was hard to tell. The fish would come up and actually take the bait under then I would wait to be sure I didn't jerk the bait too early and it would just come floating back to the top. Could I have been waiting too long to set the hook?

Congrats on the PB.
