Fishing near Biddinghuizen, Flevoland

Biddinghuizen is a village in Flevoland, a province built on land reclaimed from the IJsselmeer. The area sits at the heart of a network of polderkanalen, randmeren and open lakes. The Veluwemeer — a randmeer of more than 3,000 hectares between Flevoland and Gelderland — is the closest major water, and the Hoge Vaart canal runs directly alongside the village. Predator fishing, particularly for pike and pikeperch, is what draws most anglers to this corner of Flevoland.
