Scottish Creelers and Divers (SCAD)

Welcome to the Scottish Creelers and Divers website.

We are a new Association which derives from the Clyde and South-West Static Gear Association (CSSGA) and our aims are to establish a strong national voice in the future development of Scottish inshore fishing, in defence of the rights of traditional Creelers and Divers, through input to regional fishery management and national and international conservation groups.

We have created this website to raise awareness of our campaigns and the excellent quality and range of seafood available in scotland. On the site you will find information about our history, mouthwatering recipes from top chef Nick Nairn and details of companies and organisations that support us.

Please get in touch with us with your views and any suggestions that you may have for the website.
