Default Turbot in the Mersey!!

So what else has anyone caught in the Mersey recently?And how far up the
Mersey have fish been caught?Many years ago in the mid eighties I remember
someone catching a large fish (18") but unsure what it was.That was caught
underneath the Runcorn-Widnes bridge,but was so badly deseased it was

killed
instead of being thrown back.Glad to say that the water around there has
indeed improved,although it is still far from clean.
To see the pictures and report go here, BUT, please be ready for the
Liverpool humour

Mullet, Bass, Eels, dabs, Flounder, Sole ( Oglet shore) Thornbacks, Dogfish,
smoothhound and Mackeral ( New Brighton) just a few of the species caught
this summer, not may I add, all by me

The river has cleaned up a hell of a lot over the last 10 years and I'm sure
we will get a lot more species over the coming years

As It's National Fishing Week we're holding one of our Fish'n'Eats on the
29th August ( weather permitting) at Hall Road Crosby, not the most prolific
venue, but clean, safe with toilets with hot water and great access for
disabled and you can fish from your car!

If we catch anything more than a few inches long I'll let yer all know
