Abstract

A fish cleaning apparatus includes an elongated table having a clamp generally centered along the length thereof for engaging the tail of a fish so that the clamped fish may be supported on either side of the table for cleaning one side of the fish and then flipped onto the other side of the table for cleaning the other side of the fish. A securement strap disengageably connected to the jaw of the fish secures the fish on the table during the cleaning operation at either end of the table and facilitates removal and disposal of the fish carcass without any direct handling of it.
