[@bayoustateoutdoors9650]

Hands down, BPT coverage and format is the best....... And Brandon Coulter passed under that bridge 30 minutes b4 Ott.......Congrats Ott!

[@caseywabeke5394]

Wrong

[@fishingwiththad681]

Otter dinged up a biggun! Congratulations on your first of many to come!

[@kodymackie6808]

I feel for MDJ, dude led every single day until the last hour of the whole damn tourney, but he didn’t lose he got beat, Ott freaking sucked the soul out of the rest of the top 10 with that flurry, crazy, congrats Ott.

[@thomassurratt2936]

Old Ott been doing that along time, even back before he was a professional he was kicking my tail in East Tn

[@gaff736]

Exactly my thoughts. MDJ did everything he could and just plain got beat by Ott finding that school and having enough know how to keep them fired up until the biggest few in the whole pod ate and put him over the top.

[@bferg8972]

I would love to see the other anglers reaction to when the other officials give the score tracker update. Ott was catching them so fast, unbelievable

[@JuniorB86]

Was crazy to watch the ol otter drop the hammer on em. That's gotta be one of the best comebacks on BPT so far. And couldn't happen to a better guy!

[@DrZiggyzoo1]

Congrats on the win Ott!

[@anthonydeininger2835]

Ott Defoe catching like that at the end reminds me of Edwin Evers in the Redcrest 3rd period just pulling them in one after the other. Mark Daniels Jr. put up big numbers all week, bummer he wasn’t able to finish it up at the end, but a true gentleman in his manners.

[@hltsolo]

congratz ott you are one of my five "one to watch" fishermen in MLF

[@zacharylemaster1996]

Ott put the smack down on them with that crankbait!

[@johnmango6056]

[@jimoconnor8597]

[@charlessheid8362]

[@laurapopelka810]

[@Twangtown7]

[@shawnbeck2303]

[@RadYOacTVe]

Ott on the hunt for monster bass!

[@stevecarpenter4217]

Way to go Ott

[@oggisword101]

Anyone know what kinda rod Ott was using to crank?

[@edmelungeon2239]

Bass pro shops crankin stick. Nice crankin rod for $120. I have 2 & love them.

[@oggisword101]

ed melungeon preciate you👍🏻

[@ata1421]

It was DT 6 or DT 10 crush color?

[@edmelungeon2239]

Dt 10

[@colequinn10]

Ott couldn’t get the fish off the scale and is bait back out there fast enough. 😂

[@roblacitinola866]

Alton Jr. is the Joey Logano of bass fishing :)

[@lostboy7330]

Is this fork or Athens the description says Athens but the beginning of the video says fork

[@HookLife]

Defoe laid the hammer 🔨 down

[@xdh10x]

Those zebras are absolutely sucking the enjoyment out of watching this. I cringe every time I hear their enjoyment saying “fish landing violation”

[@Amckinney479]

xdh10x snowflake

[@vincentspencer3699]

Wtf is a “fish landing violation “?!

[@fishingwiththad681]

Vincent Spencer when a fish hits the your boat on the carpet they have to sit down for 2 mins during can’t fish.

[@caseywabeke5394]

It's some stupid penalty for the stupid MLF format

[@edmelungeon2239]

Fish cannot touch the carpet, or they have to sit for 2 mins & not fish. They can do anything else, like retie or change baits.

[@shawnbeck2303]

By letting the bass hit the deck. It wipes the slime off the fish. That's the real reason! Without slime. The fish get diseases. Shawn

[@davidalley7270]

Dagnabit, Athens will be crowded with sod busters now...

[@livesay88]

Someone tell that black guy we already have a mike Ike

[@socalangler4082]

Why can't it be called "major international league fishing"? Lol

[@lexlexy1943]

[@brianm4198]

[@caseywabeke5394]

Cuz the entire format is stupid
