ABSTRACT:
A device for processing fish, the device comprising: an open channel through which a fish can pass; a fish processing means associated with the channel; a vertical guide plate pivotally mounted on each side of the channel, having a firing position and a retracted position; a mechanism for moving the fish processing means from a (“firing position”) to a position which allows passage of the fish through the channel after processing (“retracted position”); a mechanism for pivoting each guide plate between the firing and retracted positions (“guide plate pivot mechanism”); a trigger that when contacted by the head of the fish activates the fish processing means; and a mechanism for resetting the device after the processing of a fish, wherein the resetting mechanism is in communication with the trigger and wherein actuation of the mechanism by the trigger facilitates: activation of the fish processing means; movement of the fish processing means and guide plates from their respective firing positions to their respective retracted positions; return of the fish processing means and the vertical guide plates to their respective firing positions after they have attained their retracted positions; and priming of the at least one fish processing means.
