From Liverpool as far as the river is tidal at Howley Weir in Warrington the river has species such as Cod, flounder, Thornback Rays, Bass, Whiting, Eels and other sea fish species. As the river approaches Howley Weir certain Course fish start appearing such as Pike, Bream, Roach, Perch, and then once over the weir there is a healthy course stock of these species and more up until the Manchester Ship Canal which is legally unfishable but probably full of fish.

Salmon have been regularly seen as far up as the second Weir in Warrington, Woolston Weir, where there are salmon steps at the side of the weir.
