To be truthful, there's more than one kind of "redfish". Redfish is the generic term for the large family of snappers (which confusingly the bluefish also belongs).
The snapper...that mean-looking bugger whose bite is worse than its, uh, stare. Its typical appearance makes it the default neighborhood bully. Generally speaking, snappers have large heads that taper down as the body lengthens, punctuated by spiny fins and the common bifurcated fish tail. Snappers usually don't win beauty contests. Its teeth might be a contributing factor.
If the snapper were a bar patron or a legal professional it would most likely be voted "literal bottom feeder." That should be enough to deter you from ordering it the next time you go out.
