Easy Launch, Big Catch: The Ultimate Guide to Using Silent North Fishing Boards

Fishing, Reinvented

Gone are the days when fishing trips demanded heavy boats, expensive trailers, and complex logistics. Today, anglers are embracing a new way to fish — lightweight, versatile, and unbelievably accessible. Enter Silent North Fishing Boards: a game-changing innovation for anyone who craves a simple launch and a rewarding catch.

Whether you’re an experienced pro or a weekend explorer, this ultimate guide will show you why Silent North is revolutionizing the fishing experience and how you can maximize your time on the water.

Why Choose Silent North Fishing Boards?

1. Easy Setup, Anytime, Anywhere

One of the biggest obstacles for fishing enthusiasts has always been getting on the water. With Silent North, that challenge disappears. Their inflatable fishing boards fit into a compact carry bag and can be fully set up in under 10 minutes with a hand or electric pump.

  • No boat ramps needed.
  • No special towing vehicle.
  • No complicated preparations.

Imagine parking next to a hidden lake, inflating your board on the spot, and paddling out within minutes — it’s that easy.

2. Lightweight but Heavy-Duty

Don't let the word "inflatable" fool you. Silent North boards are constructed using drop-stitch technology and military-grade PVC, providing a hard, stable surface that feels just like a solid board under your feet.

The result?

  • Superior balance, even while standing.
  • High weight capacity for carrying fishing gear.
  • Excellent durability against rocks, shells, and rough conditions.

These fishing boards can support everything you need for a full day's trip — and then some.

How to Launch Your Silent North Fishing Board

1. Gear Up

Before heading out, make sure you have:

  • Your Silent North board
  • Pump (manual or electric)
  • Paddle
  • Life vest (always a good safety move)
  • Fishing gear and tackle
  • Optional: Cooler, tackle box, fish finder, rod holders

Tip: Silent North boards come with accessory mounts — you can customize your setup easily!

2. Inflate and Prep

At your launch site:

  • Unroll the board on a flat surface.
  • Use the pump to inflate to the recommended PSI (usually around 12-15 PSI).
  • Attach your seat, rod holders, and any additional accessories.
  • Secure all your fishing gear using onboard D-rings and bungees.

The setup is fast, straightforward, and beginner-friendly.

3. Launch Smoothly

Simply carry your board to the water’s edge (most models weigh under 30 lbs) and gently push it in. Step on from shallow water to keep your balance.

Pro Tip: Start by paddling a bit to get used to the board’s feel before setting up your rod. Stability is impressive, but a little practice makes you even more confident.

Fishing from a Silent North Board: Tips for a Big Catch

1. Silent Approach = More Fish

Motorboats create noise that easily scares away fish. With a Silent North board, you can glide silently across the water — getting closer to fishing hotspots without disturbing the ecosystem.

Perfect for:

  • Shallow flats
  • Hidden coves
  • Narrow river bends
  • Quiet backwaters

2. Smart Gear Placement

Maximize the board’s design:

  • Place your cooler or tackle box behind your seat for easy access.
  • Mount your rod holder in a position that allows quick grabs when a fish strikes.
  • Use the side rails for mounting tech like fish finders or action cameras.

Organization equals efficiency — and more fish!

3. Stand or Sit: Your Choice

One huge advantage of Silent North boards is the ability to both sit comfortably and stand up when casting or reeling in.
Standing gives you better visibility for sight fishing, while sitting keeps you stable during windy conditions.

Adapt based on the conditions of the day — Silent North gives you the flexibility.

Real Adventures: Silent North Anglers Speak Out

Here’s what real users are saying:

  • Tom, Colorado: “I reached trout spots no motorboat could touch. Silent North changed the way I fish.”
  • Lena, Oregon: “I used to hate the hassle of launching. Now I fish solo every weekend with my board.”
  • Diego, Texas: “Caught my PB largemouth from a spot that’s impossible to reach from shore. Love my board!”

Silent North fishing boards are empowering more people to enjoy fishing — in their own style, at their own pace.

Your Big Catch Awaits

Fishing with Silent North is about freedom, adventure, and simplicity. No more heavy lifting. No more stressful setups. Just you, your board, and a whole world of water to explore.

Ready for easy launches and big catches? Then it’s time to step into the future of fishing — and let Silent North guide the way.
