This invention provides a paddle retainer for stand-up paddleboards. There are two basic embodiments of the idea: a plug with a paddle-retaining slit that can be attached wherever the user wishes to attach it on the SUP, and a paddle-retaining slit built into the kicktail of the SUP. With both embodiments, the tip of the paddle is held within the slit portion by friction, such that SUP users can easily “store” their paddles in a vertical position while engaging in activities such as fishing that require them to store their paddles, and then easily retrieve their paddles without bending over to pick them up. The plug optionally has one or more holes into which fishing rods can be removably secured.
