Pulled this beauty from 280 meters.
When the fish was spiked the blood ran through the eye, is this common?
Never seen this on other species.
Cheers

Yeah
its pretty much the biggest Yellow eye I've ever seen.
Bit different to the common Bight Redfish (Nannygai)

Thanks Bucko and Matt for clarifying the species
I was not sure whether it was a Nannygai or Yellow eye.
Anyway they tasted really good. The best I have eaten IMO.
Also they came from the same ground where we caught our Grey Band and Bass grouper.

Interesting bleed into the
Interesting bleed into the eye, but then alot of deep species have bigger eyes and it might just be more noticeable on them...? Regardless I would say you spiked it properly for that to happen.
