A device for holding bait fish to permit cutting a strip from the side of the fish. The device comprises a holding block having a depression to hold a fish with a side of the fish protruding. A clamping plate has a further depression formed in it. These depressions are correspondingly shaped to hold opposed sides of a bait fish. A pivotal joint between the holding block and the clamping plate permits variable spacing between the holding block and the clamping plate. Spikes in the depressions engage and assist in locating a fish held between the holding block and the clamping plate. One slot is formed longitudinally in each of the holding block and the clamping plate and there is a guide block for a knife blade positionable within each slot. Control of the projection of each guide block from each channel to control the thickness of the strip cut is permitted.
