Carthagena Weir is a weir located at Broxbourne on the River Lea. The well oxygenated water with depths ranging to over 16 ft, makes it an ideal environment for coarse fish including the common barbel.

Fishery

The weir is part of a complex known as the Carthagena Fisheries.[1] Today the weir is known nationally for the quality of its chub fishing.

Well known anglers who have fished these waters include Chris Yates and Matt Hayes.[1]
