Abstract: The present invention is a baiting machine using entire fishes. The machine combines a guide known for the guiding of the point of the fish hooks, a corridor for the introduction of the baiting fish which is perpendicular to the trajectory of the fish hook point, a retractable wall prolongating the wall of the corridor on the downstream side of the trajectory of the fish hook and a second wall perpendicular to the first, said second wall being prolongated by an arm which can be caught by the fish hook in order to pivot the retractable wall about a pivoting axis situated toward the corridor and downstream with respect to the trajectory of the fish hook and an oblique ramp pushing back the head of the bait introduced along the longitudinal direction of the corridor toward the second wall of the retractable wall. The machine is usable for trawl line fishing.
