Get into Stand Up Paddleboard Fishing video series Part 1 / How to Video

[@danwillmore9853]

The paddle leash thing is great. I tend to use the excess bungie from the tie downs front and back and tie a bowline in to each one. Never failed. Just a thought if you forget to take one.

[@SUPboardermag]

Yeah that would work, thanks for the comment Dan . Reuben

[@supjay3945]

That fishing pole in shorts is a new tip for me. Lets see how practical it is for my situation

[@SUPboardermag]

Give it a go...

[@1dowsey]

Very helpful thanks for posting

[@random.blondie1]

Very nice video. I am going on my first fishing trip with my iSUP in august. Location will be a small lake in Sweden. Deep in the woods where you normally only can fish from land.

[@SUPboardermag]

Have fun! Sounds amazing!

[@joelelias2556]

Great info! I’m not sure about the rod in the shorts though😆. I’m gonna look for some kind of rod harness….

[@SUPboardermag]

😂 great shout!

[@robertfultz2842]

This is great for me, as someone who is looking to get into the sport. Thank you!

[@geoffsibley941]

Nice one! I love both SUPing and fishing you've inspired me to go for it! Appreciate the tips on solid vs inflatable. I have a wide 9'5 surf-shape hard board so it can create a loud hull-slap noise. Rather than buying another board I am going to experiment to see if there is anything I can do to minimise the noise. I may try for example, pulling an old fleece or T shirt down around the nose of the board. Worth a try! Cheers, Geoff

[@SUPboardermag]

Nothing sounds daft when it comes to fishing. I would go out and try it first see how noisy it is and if you catch anything. The towel idea would work but slow you down quite a bit and be hard to paddle. A very small 5mm thick 10'x10' sheet of foam stuck on the bottom of your board just up at the nose where the water hits would work too. Just don't loose it. Tight lines Reuben

[@brucepatrick2380]

Great Video Reuben it has given me much food for thought. I am just starting out sup boarding. This video has given me some great ideas for more activities on the waterways near me

thanks for the comment

Hi Reuben, gread vid as always. Just bought a Red 10'8 sup and really want to get out and do some fishing on it. Only thing is i don't fancy my nice new board smelling of fish. Do you find its an issue? Or do you have separate boards? Thanks

[@brucepatrick2380]

Good point Sam. I am not sure but I think if you clean you sup down after every fishing adventure. I am guessing the smell won't be a problem

[@ZAClimbingNoutdoors]

I am a fisherman, and a stand up paddle-boarder, but never once did I think to fish of my paddle board!

[@SUPboardermag]

Oooh! Something new to try then!

[@nemod3338]

Rod in the shorts was funny as hell XD I bet you can catch Mermaid with that.

[@SUPboardermag]

lol not yet ! Thanks Reuben

[@grahamgerman3125]

Hi Ruben, great video and information, any solution for a Sup with no fixing points on top of the sup I have a solid board, but no cleats to tie down any crate etc. Is there any solution to this problem?

[@SUPboardermag]

You can use a good contact adhesive to stick new attachments down on inflatables SUPs and hard SUPs. Thanks Reuben

[@theoutdoordad7395]

awesome video, what would your top choice be for an Isup for fishing and day touring? I was thinking a Bluefin Carbon Cruise 12, would your recommend the Red Paddle board over that? if you like handline fishing you should check out tenkara rods, lots of funf and telescope down to a very compact size.

[@SUPboardermag]

Hey DJ. Thanks for the rod Recommendation I will check them out. Both the boards will work well for Sup fishing but if I could afford it I would go for a Red Paddle over a bluefin just because it's much lighter and it will be easier to carry down to my fishing location with all my gear. Thanks Reuben

[@theoutdoordad7395]

@@SUPboardermag thanks!! Do you have a hard board recommendation that would work for fishing and 1-2 hour fitness/fun paddling that isn't a barge to paddle?

[@SUPboardermag]

Yeah the 11'6" JP Hybrid I used in this video was fun and be great for a bit of fishing too. www.supboardermag.com/2019/04/30/inflatable-or-hard-board-we-compared-a-jp-australia-hybrid-hard-crusiair-isup/ Thanks Reuben

When video3? Greetings

[@SUPboardermag]

Stay tuned - its SUP fishing season here now, and we are working on it :)

[@flying8842]

I have just a Sup race 14x24.5 I can do it ???? What I need for to do it? 🙏

[@SUPboardermag]

Yes you can, if your balance is good enough. I have fished from all sorts of boards. Thanks Reuben

[@glennedwards1518]

Hi mate. Do you know how many liters the air tight barrel holds? Cheers

[@SUPboardermag]

I have just had a look for you and it says 55l on it. thanks Reuben

[@glennedwards1518]

@@SUPboardermag cheers for that. Just looking for a SUP fishing setup that is relatively cheap

[@SUPboardermag]

@@glennedwards1518 Yeah when I started I just used to SUP fish on anything. As long as your line is in the water you are in with a chance lol. Reuben

[@burbusbond]

Hi. Can I ask where you got your board Fisher from. Can't find one anywhere

[@SUPboardermag]

Hi David , I got it from New Zealand about 6 years ago now. I know they are hard to track down. They're from USA originally. If you find i link to them let me know and I will tell the other SUP fisherman out there. Sorry I cant help more ;-(. Reuben / SUPboarder

[@burbusbond]

SUPboarder no worries thanks for the reply

[@sambeere4037]

Awesome video bro thanks heaps, I've been struggling an you have troubleshooted a bunch of my issues. If u are ever down in NZ hit me up I've got some good terrain on the west coast lots of fish heaps of cool sea caves also . Thank you.

[@SUPboardermag]

Hey Sam. Will do for sure. I spent a few years in NZ and that was where I first SUP fished 'back in the day' ! OMG you have some good fishing there. A Kahawai was the first fish ever landed. Get yourself a kingfish and you’re set to go water skiing! Have fun Reuben

[@lifeofpies]

What is that camo board??

[@SUPboardermag]

Hey Andy. That was a board that was made by Fatstick. Not sure if they produce it any more but it did look good.It's exactly the same size as the Aqua Marine Drift, Thanks Reuben

[@lifeofpies]

SUPboarder cheers mate

[@adventureswithfrodo2721]

Trolling is not the most popular sup fishing method.

[@SUPboardermag]

But it's a good one!
