I bought the item from Lumica. Check out YouTube.

As I understand, after the wire is inserted the fish will move as if it is alive.
Then when the gills are cut, the heart will keep pumping the blood out of the fish.

Thus the meat has less blood in it. On TV, I saw they put the fish in ice water right away, so I don’t get the fresh water issue. Their water maybe saltwater, but I doubt if the ice was salt water.
The language was in Japanese, so I did not understand anything they said.
In Alaska the catch is held in bilge cavity, with salty cold water in it.
