The Shetland Angling Association has recommended this location as one of the possible spots to catch sea trout, which can be found in various places along the coastline. Anglers are encouraged to explore and try different locations. However, it's important to bear in mind that sea trout can be affected by angling pressure, and therefore, although there are no basket limits, anglers are kindly requested to conserve stocks.
