What is a fish cleaner?

Fish cleaners are professionals who prepare fish for sale or consumption by removing scales, guts, heads, and bones. They work in fish markets, processing plants, or on fishing boats, ensuring that the fish is clean, properly filleted, and ready for customers or further processing. Fish cleaners need good knife skills, attention to hygiene, and knowledge of different fish species. The role also involves maintaining equipment and adhering to food safety regulations.
