I recently had a tournament at lake where bass were guarding fry and I was throwing a swimbait and you could watch 3 4 and 5lbs'ers just come out of nowhere and ram the baits with their mouths closed. It was the most frustrating thing but at the same time was pretty cool. They usually came at the baits from the side though. It would also depend on the bait and depth. I have had fish knock a crankbait sideways on one color then go back through the same area with same color crank except the 2nd one had a orange throat and red gills. I have seen bass make a turn like a Zero turn lawnmower. Hopefully that helps ya a little.
