Bryan Thrift and Andy Montgomery Go Jet Boating!

This is the first time some of my buddies (Andy Montgomery and Bryan Thrift) have been in a jet boat! We’ve been friends a long time and have fished together here and there along the way. We were in SC for a cup event and on my off day we hit up some water close to where they live but have never fished. The fishing was fair but the fun was big! Even getting the boat launched was an adventure 😂

[@billdye3530]

Very enjoyable video. Actually thought to get the boat in & out of the river that you might have just given Andy a Squencher & let him lift by himself. Lol. Good to have friends like them. 🙏 👍

[@tommywalker741]

Three great anglers fishing for fun that’s awesome 🙏

[@gregorychapa2823]

yup they are, fished with Ott as co-angler about 12 years ago at the Lake Norman FLW, he was awesome and knew then he would win a Classic one day

[@rjm830]

These are some legends all in one video. It don’t get any better than that

[@haroldrogers6566]

This is absolutely the best video I’ve seen in bass fishing videos. Andy Montgomery the smart slow talking thick headed stronger than he knows South Carolina bumpkin. Brian Thrift the untreated ADD fast fishing smooth talking fish catching North Carolina bumpkin. And Ott Defoe our own slow methodical down to earth good family man sneaky fish catcher from East Tennessee. What a crew!!!! Thanks for letting me be a fly on the side of the boat today. It brought back memories of me fishing with friends and fun times and the picking on each other that goes with it. Again, great video of three great guys 👍😁👍

[@RealMitchRapp]

This is the best pro bass fisherman off duty like Content I’ve seen since Covid started and Videos went crazy. Thank you so much, Ott! You keep great company… bless y’all!

[@trevorschneiderfishing]

You guys are the best! Thank you for sharing!

[@adrianstoltzfus7941]

This was great. I really enjoyed watching!

[@roblacitinola866]

Jet boat adventures with Ott and friends! These are great!!!

[@timroyall6513]

Good times with good friends. Love this video! Thanks for posting it.

[@duck2927]

Ott I loved this video feel like I gained tons of knowledge listening to you teach them about river fishing and enjoyed watching y’all have a fun time

[@mort3770]

I like the Jet Boat series. Reminds me of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Love Ott's laugh too. Upgrade to Rockproof boat. Rocks are no problem.

[@mikebailey2119]

Ott, thanks for sharing this video. It's a blessing to have friends who share your interests and faith.🙏🎣🐟

[@MrJohnB-qs6dp]

That was awesome!!!👊🏻 Always waned to go for a ride in a jet boat. Nice to see you guys fishing for fun!!!!👍🏻😎 Stay Safe & God Bless!!!

[@henrycoleman5715]

Love these jet boat videos Ott! The river is my favorite place to fish. You never know what you'll hook and they fight for their lives!

[@jimwarncke3787]

that was fun to watch the 3 of you enjoying the day so much. I know it was fun for you too, out just fishing for fun, no pressure. Thanks for another great video, and thanks to Andy and Bryan too.

[@jimhalleran6239]

Best fishing video ever!!! And three of my favorite pro anglers to boot.

[@shawn_r_schultzfishing4883]

All that determination to get the boat put in paid off 🎣 Y'all looked like you were having a blast! That drone definitely is a handy tool to have when you're navigating those shallow spots. Great video!

[@TuantheFruitBat]

That was an awesome video. Thankyou Ott!

[@Mjones8383]

Great video, I love river and creek fishing. I grew up fishing the Coosa so you could say I understand current and how to fish it. I know its an old video but I'm binge watching

[@buzzworth2396]

This is real river fishing!!!! The drone concept is a great idea. In the past, it could have saved me some major headaches. Thrift & Montgomery are a good combination to fish with. Might not learn much but never a dull moment. Great video Ott 👊👊

[@jimmiller6030]

Thanks for showing the jet boat love. It’s. A good time the ride and adventure oh. And. The fishing ain’t bad either. My jet. Is a 250 pro xs. On 18’ weld craft. Keep it on the skinny water. 😁

[@coltonwinchester39]

This is the best video I’ve ever seen you do. This is just like fishing here at home with our Jett boats on the Susquehanna river here in north central PA. If your ever up this way and want to pound smallmouth on the river I’ll be happy to take you out. I’m really surprised you guys didn’t throw a fluke in this video. I’d definitely be throwing a fluke a spook and a jig

[@DavidBrown-cu1xu]

Always fun watching you on the jet boat

[@ptcscagu2878]

That was so cool guys.

[@djmyslinski7613]

Man i wish i could of been on that boat and just listened haha.. some good ol boys right there! And dang good people

[@basstobasscookingbrentbabi5411]

My 3 favorite pros in 1 boat - incredible🎣🤘🏼

[@bruce5168]

Ott the river king lol. Great video of friends having fun. No superstar attitudes. Good people

[@jimpulcine9925]

Loved the video. I asked Andy Montgomery that you Ott Defoe and Andy Montgomery are part of my bucket list to fish with. .y wife and ai fish all the time together. I'm 61 and not a pro but we hold our own in a bass boat. We own a 2022 Z20 Nitro set up like Otts. Thanks for the great videos Jim and Becky from Wisconsin

[@greghiday]

Great video Ott. Can't beat a good day on the river. Would like to see another best five video sometime. God Bless.

[@serialseatsniffer5610]

Quick comment for you, Ott. I don’t follow the circuit like I used to. I came across you and subsequently your videos by accident. I gotta say, you’re a quality fisherman and I can tell you’re a great father and good friend. I also bass fish rivers via Jet Boat, so I throughly enjoy your videos. Subscribed. Thanks!

[@OttDeFoeFishing]

Thanks for watching. I enjoy my river time.

[@187bootleg]

Quite a bit of mean mouth catches wasn’t it? Pretty cool trip fellas! Love seeing the boys fish in my neck of the woods 👊

[@Jay_Wood]

That's cool, man. Looked like fun.

[@BASSnBEER]

Looks like a blast guys!! That skinny water will pucker you up sometimes running it in the jet boat 😂 love some river fishing

[@frederickshebester2368]

You put them three in the boat you gotta have fun. Hats off to drone pilot Ott for getting everybody back home safe!

[@drewculbreth4805]

There is a lot of talent in that Jet boat

[@BassAmateur99]

Andy Thrift are just quite when you talk about finding a line or v to go through thhe rapids is halarious

[@Flynfish]

You three in a boat together…oh my goodness!!!

[@greenpighunter6930]

Excellent. That's a vast amount of bass fishing prowess in an aluminum boat.

[@clarynick]

Man that looks fun!!! Would be blast. I’m here in east Texas and what’s a mean mouth??? Good video y’all

[@streetfighterfan500]

LOL Andy, "I ain't sayin nothing"

[@HotRodDave]

I am doing my homework on river jet boats. Looks like fun

[@stevenwalker9013]

Some of the cast to the bank in under bushes is amazing! I would have lost every lure in the boat!

[@danieljoslin2893]

Awesome!

[@korycolorado]

That looks super fun!! Put some oar locks on that boat and run down that river with ease! Coming back up different story....

[@petecook1611]

Really enjoyed that!! Would love to go out w u sometime! Or u can come to GA and we go out on ocmulgee river for some giant shoalies!!

[@willvanderhoeven8119]

That was quite the launch. Ha

[@davidtreichler8036]

3 great fishermen

[@johnhoyle1647]

For you guys that are asking, this is the southern yellowstone in northern South Carolina..

[@caseyhuxta7349]

need a roller trailer. so much easier launching super shallow. can just replace those bunks with rollers.

[@Wicked03GT]

Ott, I’m not far from you. If you ever want to fish the Chattahoochee river or a few of the other rivers around. They are very jet boat friendly. I would love to learn some lessons to uses a jet setup, I’m planning on buying a G3 in the future when the finances allow it

[@markharmon8018]

You should have grabbed that piece of plywood to help load the boat. Lol

[@truthh8322]

They don't have ramps in sc?

[@BuddyChance401]

Thanks for the video, Ott. How do you manage to take two boats on tour with you?

[@garydecker8261]

Cool.. BigBay access, Gaffney side of river , ten minutes from me , fished that a good bit , I can only make it to tha first set of nasty rocks near N.C. line ...could go further if I had a jet boat ... Glad yall had good time , thanks fer yalls video, Andy Bryan are locals , and I pull fer em on tournaments...Ott , I watch all your shows

[@jasonmausteller2488]

What 1/4 ounce chatterbait do you use

[@petersmith6701]

3 sticks so big the bass must have thought a logjam was floating down the crick

[@johnmiller3138]

What river in SC is this.

[@RealMitchRapp]

Ott.. Is that a DJI Drone? If so, what model is it? My son wants desperately to fly a drone over eve waters we fish. Gearing up for Christmas!

[@Phoenix-nl2ut]

Meanmouth are the coolest looking fish.

[@richjones9962]

What river are you on?

[@brandon87ize]

Ott has got those crow toes! Y’all still let old Thrift whoop up on y’all out of the back! 3 stooges in a river boat.

[@Cufootball7]

Any idea what river in sc they are on? I live in sc and have never caught a small mouth and have always wanted to.

[@danielwicks9703]

Broad river Blacksburg sc

[@ozarklife9468]

Hay I personally think it be fun to see all try fish gigging here in southern MO hit me up if you are interested and I will try to see what I can do to make it happen

[@sonyawebb1925]

Bad idea Thrift ! Dont let Andrew anywhere near that water with a bobcat ! ! !

[@jtomlinsonfishing1406]

Is that saluda

[@gaverick73]

You’re at my favorite SMB spot! You’re lucky the water stays on or you won’t get back out. If you wanna know how and where to fish that area, reach out to me.

[@JakeHarshman]

You know... If you just had a kayak with a torqeedo motor... This would be a lot easier.

[@givemeabreakdoc]

The problem with all these river /jet videos, is it’s just gonna send more people. I’d prefer the citiots stay in the city, and the lake.

[@kevinramsey966]

Fished them holes my whole life. Great spots. Next time down get him to put you on down at the fire cracker plant. Caught a bunch over 4 down there

[@Cufootball7]

What river is this I live in the low country and have always wanted to catch a small mouth never really new they were in sc wouldn’t mind making a weekend trip to give it a shot.

[@kevinramsey966]

@@Cufootball7 broad river. You don’t have to come all the way to the upstate. There’s many in the waters around Columbia too

Bryan thrift ever gets around Sam Rayburn he can park his rv if he travels with one for free in my yard I have 50amp hook up water / sewer and 110volt for boat charging all ready with nice grass front yard where rv goes if he let me fish with him 1 time

Come on now Ott, i shouldnt have to listen to a judge janet commercial to see your video

[@fishinfool247]

roller trailer would be great bunk trailers are garbage for river fishing

[@MegaSandman1977]

all that work to catch baitfish

[@walleyechannel]

Ott, not certain if you read comments but this is the TN topwater walleye dude. You had my back on BTL and I wanted to say thanks. No one ever believes me. That is why I posted some vids. On KZbin..,walleye channel. Or “topwater walleye”. TN has some of the best. I am a bass fisherman but catching those eyes on top. No other blow up like it. I message to every pro on BTL if they have ever done it. I know the BTL people are tired of hearing from me.

[@serialseatsniffer5610]

Everyone is tired of hearing from you. 🏃🏾‍♂️
