I've never seen spots like this on a cabrilla before; anyone know what this is?

Spotted Cabrilla -- you already had that one figured out.

The blood was what had me fooled, so I had to photoshop it. Jorge is right. Spotted Cabrilla, Epinephelus Analogus.

NO, not a Pinto.....Spotted Cabrilla is correct I am sure.....I always figured it was a color phase.....caught a lot of them.....

Chuckie: yes, this is the color I am used to in BOLA, but the one in the photo I had not seen before.
Pesky: forgot to say the blood, sorry.

spotted cabrilla (epinephelus analogus) have round tails. That is a juvenile saw tail grouper(mycteroperca priona). Chuckies picture are leopard grouper(mycteroperca rosacea) which are also frequently called cabrilla .
