The finger probe is located into the rib tunnel along the vertebral column and the fish and finger plate move relative to one another separating the ribs and muscle tissue. The finger plate includes a sharpened portion such that the skin will also be severed. The tail splitting apparatus method separates the muscle tissue and ribs through the length of the fish exposing the kidney along the vertebral column and the vertebral column for subsequent processing.
