        if your getting a steady run of skimmers and small bream and start getting the odd bigger bream on a commercial whats the best way to pick off the bigger bream without pulling in carp to the swim
        when fishing for carp i will up the feed if i start catching small fish when catching small skimmers would this be a sign to up the feed for bigger bream

          Simple, bigger baits for bigger fish is a rule i have never forgot and it certainly works for me!! Also casters have a knack of attracting bigger bream, but they sometimes take a while to turn up.

            Play about with worm baits, sometimes a worm nipped in half and hooked through the cut ends works, sometimes two small segments of worm works. I’ve been trying it at Woodland waters nr Ancaster and the bites from the better fish can be proper picky too.
            Ive tried fishing a sweet g.bait and found it to be worse than a fishmeal so that plan failed lol
            Carp will come to an area of feeding fish and if they don’t have there usual offerings usually go elsewhere. Try dead maggots, chopped worm as loosefeed, baits that bream like n carp don’t get too excited about. Not found a method that stands out myself yet.

              thanks for that all the venues i fish i always seem to go after the carp and the odd bream and tench are a bonus
              i always take swimstim and hard pellets that i use hard or soaked i think i need
              to search out the silvers more i did change slightly that day by useing a feeder and method mix which looked like it had loads of hemp crushed in as a paste
              that nice net of bream was a change and think some worms would of helped ill take some there next time
