Top Shetland mid water boat skippers have admitted to illegally landing a total of £15 million pounds worth of herring and mackerel between 2002 and 2005. Years ago, before the the world turned green, this sort of action might have seemed less of a crime against humanity and more a case of what people who hunt for a living do - in a dangerous occupation you take your chances.
