This is old news and an old game. At the end of the day you are better off eating the iced fish. This has been happening forever and won't stop as long as there is a commercial season. As far as red fish? Put a 20 pound plus bass on the deck or any flat surface without bleeding it for a half hour after it suffocates and it will turn red (doesn't mean it's not fresh)

Good point. Since bass have be sold in the round, they're not bled. Post-mortem lividity sets in very quickly if a bass isn't bled. Red doesn't necessarily mean old. It means dead and not bled.
