IPA Biggleswade Back Meadows

This water has become recognised as one of the big barbel hotspots in the country with fish to over 20lbs. It suffered from otter predation in 2015 but many big fish are still present along with some very big chub and roach. Because this section has houses on the opposite bank night fishing and bivvies are not permitted . The following extract from the constitution must be adhered to while fishing Back Meadows:-
