NRS Heron 110 Fishing Stand Up Paddleboard

*This is an oversized item, oversized items are not eligible for free shipping*

The NRS Heron 110 Fishing Stand Up Paddleboard is a purpose-built inflatable SUP designed specifically for anglers who want a stable, highly customizable platform for exploring waters that traditional boats can't reach.

Whether you're sight fishing shallow flats, drifting quiet backwaters, or hiking into remote ponds, the Heron 110 delivers exceptional stability, fishing functionality, and paddling performance.

At the heart of the Heron is NRS's innovative Integrated Shaping Technology (IST™), which uses multiple air chambers to create a board shape specifically optimized for fishing. Combined with the True Balance™ design platform, the Heron offers an impressive blend of stiffness, durability, tracking, and on-water stability that inspires confidence while standing, casting, and landing fish.

The advanced Z/Blend Core™ construction utilizes woven drop-stitch technology, making the board significantly stiffer and lighter than previous designs. The main chamber inflates to an impressive 20 PSI for outstanding rigidity, while the side chambers create the board's unique shape and stability characteristics.

Designed with anglers in mind, the Heron features a lowered DropDeck™ standing area that reduces the paddler's center of gravity for increased stability when casting and fighting fish. The textured EVA deck pad provides excellent traction even when wet, helping anglers maintain secure footing throughout the day.

Performance on the water is enhanced through the IST Concave rail design and V-shaped hull, which improve tracking, efficiency, and glide while creating a quieter ride—an important advantage when approaching wary fish in shallow water. Multiple fin options allow anglers to tailor the board's performance to different environments, from open water to weedy backwaters.

Rigging options are extensive, with four integrated YakAttack® accessory mounting locations for rod holders, electronics, camera mounts, and other fishing accessories. Additional bungee storage, D-rings, and attachment points provide ample room for coolers, tackle, and adventure gear.

A: Drift Outfitters stocks a selection of fishing-ready rafts and float boats designed with anglers in mind. You’ll find models for single, tandem, and three person use, with features such as reinforced floors, rod holders, and stable frames to fish comfortably on rivers and lakes.

Q: How do I choose the right raft size and style for fly fishing?
A: Consider how many anglers you’ll carry and the water type you’ll fish (rivers vs lakes). Single-person rafts offer easy back-county access, while tandem or multi-person models provide space and stability for casting and gear. Look for features like high load capacity and good balance.

Q: Are rafts easy to transport and set up?
A: Yes — inflatable rafts pack down compactly and are relatively easy to transport in a vehicle. Most models inflate quickly with a pump and include attachment points to secure gear and accessories before heading out on the water. Rafts with frames such as NRS models are light and many can be car topped, put in a truck bed, or pulled on a lightweight trailer.

Q: Which brands of boats and rafts do you carry?
A: Drift Outfitters features raft models from trusted outdoor brands such as NRS (Slipstream, Oxbow, Approach series) and Watermaster (Kodiak, Grizzly, Bruin). These brands are well-known in the fly fishing community for durability and performance.

Q: What accessories come with or are recommended for rafts?
A: Many raft packages include or recommend extras like pumps, repair kits, oars, anchor systems, and safety gear. Upgrading with gear like rod holders or motor mounts can enhance your fishing experience on the water.

Q: How should I care for my raft?
A: Rinse with fresh water after each trip. Dry completely before storing to prevent mildew or damage. Patch any small leaks promptly and store it loosely in a cool, dry place.
