Fish cleaning station or on my tailgate. I have a large piece of counter top that stays in the back of my truck to be used as a cutting board. I have a dumpster around the corner that I have permission to dump remains in when I clean them at the house. I used to clean them on my bait board on the boat until I found out that was illegal. They must be cleaned on the bank.

The girlfriend's kitchen sink. No sense in getting my kitchen/house all dirty and smelly.

I clean fish on tail gate. I save dog food sacks and freeze to put out on trash day.

If I'm fishing my local lakes, I clean them at home, throw the heads in a bucket and either dump it in the pasture or till it into the garden. If I'm at a lake away from home, or not going home that day, I clean them at the lake after I pull my boat out. The lakes I fish away from home have cleaning stations and the heads just get thrown into the water off the dock.

I use a camp table with my XL cutting board. I put a trash can in a 5 gal bucket and fill another 5 gal bucket about half full with ice water. Guts go in the bag trimmed fillets go in the ice water. Then I rinse them one more time before freezing them in water.


If it ain't yours don't mess with it!

At our slip. Wife bought me a portable cleaning station fro X Mas last year that has the sink and water hook up built in to it. Since our slip has water and electric I also use a electric fillet knife. Throw the remains off the slip for catfish. Bag them up and take them straight to the freezer.

The last picture looks kinda like the slips out at Lavon. I cut a 2x8 to fit in the railings and it slips in and out and with a quick wash, it goes back in the boat. It is an easy/cheap solution. I cut the fish on the dock almost every time.

Yes. cooked on the grill, they are excellent this way. Meat falls right off the skin after being cooked.

I use a folding table I build based on a youtube video I found. The top is cutting board material. It works great.




Here is the original youtube video that explains how to make it.

Sometimes at the lake/river, sometimes at home. I'm going to build a portable fish cleaning station somehow. The main thing in my eyes, is not having to bend over the whole time that you're cleaning fish. That sucks.

I have a table setup for outside, but now I have a deep sink in the garage, bucket with bag for guts. Freeze them and throw them away as others have said. If I take my fish inside to clean my wife may gut me. frown

Clean them in my driveway and dump remains in pasture behind house or in creek on the way out of the neighborhood. Creeks runs through a pasture to a big pond. Mudbugs take care of remains over night. Buzzards and coyotes clean up the ones in the pasture.
