MARINERS WHARF

From in front of the Albert dock (with it on your right) head along Wapping until the road takes a sharp left bend (at the junction of Upper parliament street), there is a junction here to the right take that onto Sefton street.The first on the right is the entrance to mariners wharf, follow the road round through the new houses till you come to the locks there is a small area that you can park.

Fish to the right or cross the footbridge and head down towards jag house.

Mariners Wharf is a very popular mark on the mersey due to easy access that it affords.Because you are fishing from a comfortable promenade with rails along it is ideal for the lass sprightly of us,the disabled or with those wanting to bring children.

Only fishable on small to medium tides due to the force of the water pushing through with the ebb being worse than the flood

Mainly fished through the winter months you can expect to catch cod, whiting, dabs,eels, sole, flounder and occasional dogfish

Lug,squid and mackerel are the main baits used here and a short cast is all that is needed.

It is not as snaggy here so only expect some light tackle loss
