Local Insights
Despite all the trials and tribulations surrounding the fishing industry, the small fleet still manages to grind out a living. This is essential as most of the fishermen only know this way of making a living with many of them carrying on family traditions handed down through generations.
It seems that despite the impact of Brexit, most of the catch currently landed in the harbour still head into mainland Europe. This is all thanks to the Scottish shellfish industry still being deemed to be the best of quality and the local fishermen are glad of this and work hard every day for this to continue for generations to come.
