redfish
Crimson ocean catch
Redfish is a name applied to several unrelated fish with reddish coloring.
In the Gulf of Mexico, it typically means the red drum, a prized game fish.
In the North Atlantic, redfish usually refers to species of rockfish or ocean perch.
The name shifts regionally—what counts as redfish in Louisiana differs from what's called redfish in Norway.
We caught redfish in the bay.
