ABSTRACT:
A fish-cleaning table for use in the home by attaching it to or suspending it from a sink having a drain and a faucet. The table has a rectangular vacuum-molded body having a higher end and a lower end with a drain opening. A series of slats run lengthwise over the body, supported by crossmembers which rest on notches in the body. The body is held on the sink by short, hook-shaped legs which fold outward from the body, and is supported by legs which pivot downward and contact the sink at a lower point than the hooks. A water spraying system, which connects to the sink's faucet as a source of water, sprays water onto the slats to continuously wash them. This water then washes the debris from cleaning the fish down between the slats and into the drain opening of the body. There a straining means catches the solid particles, and allows the liquid to continue down the drain of the sink. Means for attaching a trash bag for disposal of the larger solid waste items during cleaning and for emptying the straining means afterward is provided at the high end of the body.
