Restore Scotland candidate Brian Nugent has criticised the First Minister’s comments on a fishing deal, which he claimed “betrayed a lack of knowledge” on the issue.
Mr Nugent, who is standing in Shetland, said Nicola Sturgeon’s comments about the failure to strike a deal with Norway, where “not only boring but … plain wrong”.
As previously reported, the UK and Norway failed to reach a deal on fishing rights last week.
But while Ms Sturgeon echoed concerns raised by the UK industry, saying the Tories “Brexit betrayal” was “utterly shameful”, Scottish fishermen have taken a different stance.

Scottish pelagic fishers say Brexit has broken a longstanding link between their catch – mainly mackerel and herring – and the cod-hungry requirements of a multinational fishing company.
It comes after months of talks aimed at securing a deal between the UK and Norway on quotas and reciprocal access to each other’s waters failed to deliver an agreement.
According to Norwegian seafood and fisheries minister Odd Emil Ingebrigtsen the gulf between the two sides was “too great”.
