I once saw online a nice plastic salmon cleaning trough that is designed to sit upright on the deck, so that you can clean salmon while still in the gaff hatch. But now that I want to buy it, I cant find it anymore. Anyone see it, or have a suggestion on a cleaning trough/tray? (It wasnt the little blue "Coho" cleaner trough)

I leaned how to clean fish without one, so its hard for me to clean fish with one now. I do know people make their own out of plywood and cover them with fiberglass resin. It seems to work really well, and a guy can custom fit them to his boat and comfort level.

Im making one out of sheet aluminum for our 25 ft skipjack fisherman. I dont know where you are located. Im in the northern Sf Bay Area. But id be more than happy to build something custom for you that will more than likely last a lifetime. Ill try to include a pic. It isnt finished yet i have so much to do before our first day out on Thursday! I still need to cut a tail slot for the hogs we are hoping for and cut in the railing slots in the side plates. But i think it will work out nicely! Im even making a hose bib on my lathe so we can attach a hose to dr the cleaning trougoff the back of the boat. Good luck and tight lines everyone!
