FIELD: process engineering.

SUBSTANCE: proposed device comprises at least one pair of disc blades, endless conveyor with at least one saddle-like support to intake fish and to carry it by with its tail forward through cutting assy. Every support has bearing edge for the joint with geometrical closure with fish backbone. Besides, it comprises the device for backbone centring relative to aforesaid support. Besides, proposed device incorporates the means to move off the fish backbone from the support edge located in the area of backbone centring device. Proposed method comprises conveying the fish with backbone forward to rest on the support bearing edge with back upward through filleting device. In conveying, dorsal backbones are cut by the pair of disc blades. Prior to cutting dorsal bones, fish backbone is moved off from the support bearing edge to centre it relative to bearing edge.
