English term or phrase: Nib on / nib off (fish)
Face parte dintr-un glosar cu termeni din industria pescuitului, mai exact cu parti ale pestilor care pot fi prelucrate, pregatite, exportate... dar pt ca nu au context imi este f greu sa ma hotarasc ce sa aleg.

Se pare ca e vorba de gura pestelui dar cum se numste acea parte? Cioc? Cum altfel? Nu gasesc in nici un dictionar disponibil. Si va rog sa ma credeti ca am cautat.
