Where did the name "Red Eye" come from?

The fishing addiction is an expensive and time consuming endeavor.  It is the lack of funds and time that lead to the name Red Eye.  In the late 80's I was still working my way through college.  I was trailering a 23' boat to the coast to fish.  I could only fish on the weekends and barely had gas money for the truck and boat.  The solution was for us to wait till around midnight on Friday and then make the Red Eye run to the coast.  This way we got to the coast and would have the boat in the water at daylight.  We would fish all day on Saturday. We then only had to get a hotel room for one night.  We would be back out Sunday morning for another day of fishing.  Late Sunday evenings we would load up and drive back home.  Everyone involved would have a good case of Red Eye on Monday morning.  Over the years we have changed boats but kept the name.
