Hi all
Landed a beauty high teens spring off hornby last night. Great battle and fish could not have looked healthier.
Went to clean it an hr later and as i was cutting off the rib bones on one side, i noticed a dark purple pocket in the flesh. It was about the size of a quarter. It looked like a burst blood vessel to be honest but want opinion from the experts. I am smoking it but want to be sure its all good before feeding to family.
The pic is after i cut it all apart and looked for parasites (found none). Originally it was a small contained purple quarter size pocket right behind the ribs. No external markings and the meat looks great.
Thanks guys
