The L2Fish Paddle Board

Today we’re going to be doing a review of the popular L2Fish catamaran paddle board.

To begin, this is a really unique board.

I’ve been using it for the past two years so I’ve got a really good feel for everything this board can do (plus a few small downsides).

For the record, we are not sponsored or affiliated with Livewater Sports (the maker of the L2Fish board), so I’m gonna talk about both the pros and the cons (because we are totally unbiased here at Salt Strong and we always try our best to give fair and balanced reviews).

Finally, if you already own one of these boards (or have used one in the past,) I’d love to hear your experience and thoughts in the comment section down below.

Let’s dig in.

Pros Of The L2Fish

• This paddle board is SUPER stable (to the point you can catch tarpon with two grown adults on the board like our friends Joey Antonelli and Logan Athey did). I’ve even put my skiff platform on the board to get a couple more feet of elevation and it was still incredibly stable.
• It’s 34-inches wide and almost impossible to flip over with the catamaran style hull
• No drag in the middle of the board
• Not much hull slap (compared to other boards that don’t have a catamaran hull) – very important for sight fishing
• The SUP has tracks up and down each side of the board to easily add in any accessories (YakAttack, etc)
• Comes in numerous colors and even comes in a 14ft version as well called the Expedition (this L2Fish in the review is a 12-footer)
• It weighs 50 pounds so it’s light enough to load, launch, and carry by myself (much lighter than my kayak)
• Can hold 500 pounds of weight (so even with me, my gear, a full cooler, and a dog, this paddleboard still runs smooth)
• Easy to use for any size person (from kids to super heavy or super tall anglers)
• It looks awesome and turns heads (I’ve found it’s a great conversation starter)

Cons Of The L2Fish

• The main con is the cost, but then again, you usually get what you pay for… Note: the 12ft version is $2,300 and the 14ft version of this board (The Expedition) is $2600
• Storage (since it’s a little thicker than most boards – because of the amazing catamaran stability – it takes a little more room to store it)
• The 14ft version is a little tougher to transport by yourself

Here’s the video review below.

What are your thoughts on this board?

Let us know in the comments below.

In conclusion, if you don’t like this board, then you probably hate puppies also…

The only real downside is the cost and weight (if you compared it to a super light SUP).

But if you are serious about fishing, if you want a board that can hold all of your gear (plus your cooler and dog), this is the best board we’ve seen on the market.

In fact, we personally own two of them now (Joe just bought a new one for his 40th birthday – in black – it looks awesome).

So what are your thoughts on the L2Fish board?

I have owned an L2 since December of 2019. I have fished on it probably well over 500 times. I really enjoy fishing off of it. It is super quiet, paddles easily in calm water and weighs less than many fishing kayaks. The best feature is the stability of the board compared to others.

I primarily fish it in the Indian River Lagoon. Sometimes I take it to the Mosquito Lagoon. I have a YouTube channel where you can see me using my L2 fishing. I also have several videos on how I set up the board, transport the board, and some equipment you might consider using on your board. see below links.

As mentioned, the board is expensive. However it’s comparable to the Bote board yet more stable. Paddleboards are not good for winds over 12 mph. Especially for the inexperienced paddleboard fisherman. Kayaks are better for windier conditions. You can paddle from your knees if you can’t make much forward progress. Using the paddle as a pushpole can also help in the wind.

Great review, I’m just wondering if there’s a way to attach some sort of stability bar on 1 side or the other. I have really balance since I’m a stage 4 brain cancer survivor. I had to sell my deep V sea nymph because I didn’t feel safe on lake Michigan. Trying to remember if I put the plug in & everything else. Not worrying if I’m going sink is a relief. Obviously, lol Smaller lakes for my future.

They most likely do have an option for that since these boards have the same slots along the side that kayaks have… so stability bars for kayaks should work in these boards too.

Is there electric fins for this? That would make mine EPIC!

Great review. I love the idea of simplicity. I am new to saltwater fishing and fairly new to kayak fishing. I am 74 years old and have not felt secure enough to stand and sight fish. I think this might be one I could use. I always take way too much stuff on my kayak and with all the extra weight I am worn out by the end of the day just loading and unloading.

Thanks Paul! The simplicity route is my favorite whenever paddle fishing.

i loved this board after watching it in a Hawaiian review catching trevally. But for the cost factor decided on the pedal drive Kaku Zula at 12’7″ for $2000. I am thinking of circling back to purchase L2 12′

Contact [email protected] if ya need a board.

So some time has passed, did you ever get the l2 or l4? I’m between buying the zulu and L2 right now as well and would love to hear your insights

I totally love my L2fish! and I personally don’t know why anyone would want a Kayak to fish in! I made a 14′ tortured plywood Kayak and then a 17′ cedar strip canoe for fishing. When my son was 10 we were fishing together (we were very competitive). He would stand in the bow and sight fish. He would beat me and it drove me crazy. (Yes I would let him win as that is what a good Mom should do, LOL) but when I saw the L2fish on TV for the first time I knew I had to have one. I made a smaller version (foam and fiberglass) for my son (10′) and I bought a 12′ for me.

I love being able to stand and silently sneak up on fish! I have made tons of gear for it (front deck with cam lock for easy anchor control, rear deck with mounted Powerpole Micro, gear storage box with bump board measuring top/sight platform, 4 rod holders and plier storage, elevated rod/paddle holder, and some light and inexpensive strap on wheels to make moving it while fully loaded a breeze.

My next project is to make a mount to incorporate a new trolling motor. I love being able to walk around I seldom sit. I can put a ton of gear on it. My son even put a large lawn chair on it and slept in the middle of a creek anchored overnight.

I have had a L2 and currently have a L4. I made a power pole manual bracket which is a game changer . The full length foam deck and tracks let it be modified without drilling. One question is how to move it down stairs with maybe 1 large wheeleez tire? Like a wheel barrel with 1 wheel but it needs to be large. Considering getting a L2 because it’s lighter and go absolutely with the minimum gear. L4 is great but not a fan of gas motors on sups.

I have trouble when I fall off a SUP lifting my body to climb back on. If I attach a small stirrup rope ladder about 3 feet tall to the side of this I could drop the ladder into the water to foot lift myself on a rung to help climb aboard? At 180lbs do you think it would flip over if I just needed a slight boost to lift my body higher onto the board then swing the legs onto the board with the boost of the the rope ladder?

I think that would work great. You could tie your “ladder” off on the carrying rope. I just saw one of those and am going to make one as a safety measure for my boat. I could use it for tying off to a dock too. I use my boat to fish all the time and I have tried to flip it. Haven’t done it yet.

A standard technique for re-entering a sea kayak is using an inflatable paddle-float. Lots of YouTube videos. But you can also rig the paddle + paddle-float combo with a webbing sling that makes it really easy.

I was born with CP I’m loose muscle tone which means my muscle isn’t as strong as they should be (also have a really really bad knee n hips) I tried the kayak thing but that really bother my legs( getting down that low n getting up) n I really couldn’t load/unload it. If I get a high enough cooler to sit on do u think I would have a problem?

I must be into predators today. Live Watersports' snake-tongued L2Fish and L4Expedition catamaran paddleboards come hot - no, how about cool and refreshing floating in a crystal clear Caribbean bay? - on the heels of the Shark Steam Mop I ran right before them. Two potentially deadly animals reimagined as coveted household and leisure activity goods.

Well, "coveted" might be a strong word for both. As swell as the mop surely is, between it and an ultra-stable, super speedy, extra roomy stand-up paddleboard with a sick catamaran-style hull, there's no contest which one I'd actually covet.

Live Watersports has 2 models in their catamaran SUP line, the L2Fish and the L4Expedition. The L2Fish is designed specifically for active paddlers who want to use their board for fishing, hunting, and windsurfing excursions, as well as those floating yoga sessions I still cannot believe people who aren't Cirque du Soleil performers can do. In combination with its forked front and back design, the L2Fish uses hollow core construction to increase buoyancy and reduce the board's weight to volume ratio. A tunnel in the hull minimizes its surface area on the water to further lessen drag, "allowing the L2Fish to slice through the water with speed to rival many racing boards on the market today." This SUP is 12'6" long x 34" wide. It weighs 51 pounds and has a load capacity of 500 pounds.

If the L2Fish is Live Watersports' sport paddleboard, the L4Expedition is its cruiser. At 14' long, it provides 8' of deck space and a 700-pound load capacity. Paddlers can move around with similar ease on the L4Expedition, but will be able to bring more stuff, and more paddlers, with them.

The ultimate glide

Innovative concept design

Follow us on Instagram

SUPCAT was inspired by the catamaran boats, which everyone already knows for their performance and efficiency in seaworthiness.

However, SUPCAT uses the combination of the best of the worlds, mixing monohull and multihull in a unique stand up paddle board design.

The result is a board with less hydrodynamic drag as it has less wetted surface than a board of the same size compared to SUP race boards and with excellent stability.

We can really say that it is a hybrid performance board for both touring and adventure cruises and even unique race competitions!

SUPCAT 14'

SUPCAT 14 A stand up paddle board developed for those looking for stability and paddling with great comfort without needing great efforts for touting and long journeys.

SUPCAT 12'

SUPCAT 12 The Smaller version of Supcat boards for people who want a board with great stability, comfort in their adventures, touring and training.

L4Expedition by Live Watersports – The Ultimate Fishing Paddle Board

L4Expedition by Live Watersports The Ultimate Fishing Paddle Board

The l4expedition by live watersports truly is the ultimate fishing paddle board.

Good Morning, I am Mark Laymon. A content creator at Coral Heads and I’ve fished from dozens of paddle style platforms over the years. Mostly from canoes, kayaks, and a few paddle boards. So far I am excited to say that the L4Expedition has been my favorite. Yes, some of the sit on top kayaks have been amazing. I like to stand a lot while fishing, the L4Expedtion is superior for this. With plenty of deck space, I can drop to the deck easily if needed. There have only been a couple of times that I felt necessary go to the deck. Usually I am sitting on a 52 quart RTIC – Ultra-Light Cooler. Recently I became very out of shape, as I build my cardio skills back up, I will be using the cooler as a chair. The 52 quart cooler is on the large side, yet it fits nicely on the back of the deck and I rarely ever need to tie it down.

Before we go on, I must disclose that this video and related blog posts about the L4Expedition are NOT sponsored. Although we have affiliate links to nearly all the products we use on Amazon. We do not and have not been paid to write or share any of the content presented here. This content has been created only for the expressed love and respect for the L4Expedition by Live Watersports .

Besides being exceptionally fast, the L4Expedition is extremely stable. The first thing I did before adding any of the vast amounts of accessories was to try to flip the paddle board. It just wouldn’t flip. Yes, I really did try, falling off once in the process. The skegs located at the back of each sponson really support the tracking and adding to the stability. We should also test the Deep Trekker Pivot ROV with NAV Package next time out. Wow, time is ticking… get you paddle on!

SUP Catamaran Platform V4

MANUFACTURER SAMPLE OF NEW PRODUCT

• Description

Manufacturer sample of new product - SUP Cat Platform.

Prototype of new product, 80mm drop stitch platform with built in seats and motor mount. Designed to easily join 2 paddle boards SUPs to create motorized catamaran. Platform has 2 reclining built in chair back supports, wooden folding motor mount and 4 lines of splash guards with grommets.

Video of SUP Catamaran Platform using similar 140mm drop stitch.

Video above shows similar 140mm drop stitch. This sample is 80mm drop stitch. Thickness was reduced, so that to reduce overall weight of platform, and make inflation faster. That does not affect overall rigidity of catamaran assembly. 

Length also reduced, so that to reduce carry weight. There is no need for platform being too long. Feet can comfortably rest on SUP surface instead of platform. 

Assembly Steps:  Inflate both SUPs and a platform. Place platform over paddle boards, and center it. Run 4 straps under SUP hulls, and secure to 4 lashing tie down locks. Pull hard on a straps to secure platform to top of paddle boards. Make sure locks are fully engaged. Unfold motor mount, and adjust lashing tie down so that it in vertical position. Make sure shaft of trolling motor rest on outer edge of platform. Make sure motor prop does not touch surfaces of inflatable SUPs. Always wear PFDs. Recline angle of back rest can be increased by releasing some air from back rest. It doesn't have to be as hard as rock, and can be softer than platform itself.

Quick Tip:  For best rigidity, install platform on top of inflatable SUPs while both are slightly under inflated. Then fully inflate both SUPs. They will expand further, creating absolutely rigid structure. Or, install under inflated platform on fully inflated SUPs, secure straps, and then add more air to platform, to let it expand even more, for perfect rigidity.

IMPORTANT: Please email with questions before ordering, is something is unclear.
