I don't know that paper, nor the Higgins ink of which I have read many complaints here – but I do know Parker and Pelikan inks, and while they are great with fountain pens they tend to bleed with dip pens. Simply because, I guess at least, because there is much more ink on the paper with a swelled downstroke. Adding gum arabic helps sometimes. I also like using coloured fountain pen inks because they look like ink (a bit transparent), not like colour, in contrast to acrylic inks for example (which are also nice - just different).
You can buy bottled gum arabic in liquid form in art supply stores and add it with a pipette to the ink. Don't put in the whole bottle because apperently the gum can go bad (I read, never happened to my ink). I use separate containers for this.
The nicest ink for practice (simply black) is imho still iron gall ink because it has just the perfect flow, nearly never bleeds, gives good hairlines. Walnut ink also has good writing properties (can you say that?) but tends to bleed on more papers than iron gall ink, in my experience.
