I like to mix dumbell shape boilies with normal round boilies in my baiting spot.  I think it confuses the carp, even the most spooky specimens. This is especially true when nobody else is using the dumbells on the water.

I fished a spot very close to the margin where I baited by hand a mixture of hot hemp and partiblend with 30% of dumbells Liver B8 and 70% of 15mm Liver B8 boilies. I placed my rig with a small dumbell Liver B8 followed by a plastic yellow corn on the baiting area.

Thirty minutes later I had a run !!! After a long fight under the rod tip, I landed a superb 37lb brown mirror.

I repeated the same situation for 3 days fishing only 1h in the evening, and I managed a run each night. I really believe the shape of the bait can increase runs.
