Fished Abbeylakes a good few times, and got there on a Friday as was fishing Heron lake and went around the vans in car park and spoke to all the lads fishing Heron and they all agreed to do it on the 1st come first pick basis, was simple to organise and worked well, lads who got there first get free choice of the lake 99.9% of anglers have morals and would agree to sorting it out but you get that .01% who are so ignorant and don't give a fook!

Go midweek if possible . Easier bag going swims when people leave. More leave Fri and sat than other days.

The Saturday changeover is a bit of a nightmare in my opinion.

Even if you are 1st in the que that doesn’t mean you will get time to look around and have 1st choice of swims etc

By the time you’ve lapped the lake the others behind you in the Q will have jumped in the swim they want.

It’s a complete free for all!

Should do a draw in my view

Might be a bit less stressful in August but you want to be first in the Q imo. Get there the night before and when Dave shuts up shop on the Friday evening put your bedchair in the doorway to the clubhouse and sleep there. Gets you first in the door on the Saturday morning.
