Whats wrong with my trout

 I am doing a quick stint up in Gove and on my day off one of the guys here was good enough to lend me his tinny. I spent all day out on the water and caught only the one fish, a Coral Trout. the following night a mate and I bought some bits and bobs to have with it on the BBQ and after we got all set up I filleted the fish only to find all the way through its flesh there was brown flecks that were stringy and looked like wooden splinters almost. I wish I had taken a photo but I was so gutted about the mistery bits in the flesh that I didn't... As I'm a bit precious adout the things I eat I didn't eat it and it had to go in the bin..

Any ideas what it could have been???

 I thought that it may be worms but they were a fair bit wider than those in the pictures and more evenly spread out. they did vary in size but genaraly about 5-10mm long and 2-5mm wide....
