Abstract
A compact, easy to store, portable fish cleaner device capable of removably attaching to the outside surface of the gunwale of a boat. The device includes a v-shaped trough member capable of holding a fish for cutting over the water along the outside surface of the boat. The trough member comprises two angled surfaces pivotally attached along one edge. The ends of the trough member are open and a drain gap is created between the angled surfaces so that fish entails and other waste material may be easily washed into the water. A plurality of support members are attached to the gunwale and support the trough member in place over the water. Support member attachment means are used to removably attach each support member to the outside surface of the gunwale. Hook and loop connectors are provided between the trough member and the support members to adjustably attach them together. In the preferred embodiment, a horizontally flat cutting board is attached to one edge of the trough member enabling one to more easily remove the fish's tail and head.
