I'm not sure what your question was... so I'll assume you're asking about the way to properly transpose Bass music (again, string bass, or what?).

Bass is a C, non-transposing instrument, and Trumpet is a Bb transposing instrument in a higher clef, so you'll need to start on the note written for bass, write it one or two octaves higher to the same note in the treble clef, and then move it up two half steps for the trumpet to play the same sounding note as the bass. (obviously a few octaves higher)
