I, too, was disappointed using Leightturm notebooks with fountain pens. They're nice notebooks, but you're right; the paper isn't very good. I'm no expert, but my understanding is that more denser of paper (80 g/m^2 and up) take much better to fountain pen inks. I swear by Clairefontaine and Rhodia notebooks and paper.

This particular notebook pretends it's 80 gm/m^2. I agree, Clairefontaine and Rhodia (even cheap ones) work much better. The Diamine ink still needs some time to dry, but at least it stays on its side.
