The only Marine Stewardship Council-certified herring fishery in the north-east Atlantic is about to get under way
Boats from the north-east of Scotland and Shetland will be heading to the North Sea fishing grounds in search of the ‘silver darlings’, an iconic fish in Scottish heritage and the foundation stone of many fishing communities in the 19th century.
Oily fish such as herring, sardines and mackerel is high in omega 3, which helps keep hearts healthy.
