During the winter, which in the UK has been harsh by our normal standards, the Carp have not fed and even the use of the Biosource has in some matches I have fished has not resulted in the response I was hoping for, I had to turn to Silver fish (non-Carp) to put a net together in the team matches that I have been fishing, now the Roach seem to give a response to the Biosource soaked baits but the Bream and Skimmers seem to have a drastic effect with none at all being caught from the peg, but either side of me still catching skimmers........Has anyone had results with non- Carp when using Biosource?

Hi Chris
Interesting regarding the bream. I know B works for them (see below), it could be just 'one of those things'? Anyway, be sure to let us know how things go in the future with bream - I'm definitely interested to see how it goes. If you fancy a chat with B.J. I'm sure he'll get in touch (he often checks this forum).
Species caught: Bream, (mainly) 1 roach and 2 perch, 1 small 3oz carp. Apart from the winner around the other end of the lake who had 40lb of carp, mine was the only carp caught at our end of the lake. The weight gave me second place overall - B.J. at Ivy House Lakes.
Species caught: Roach, bream (6), tench (2), crucian (1), carp(1)- the carp was 2oz, the crucian and bream about 1lb, the tench less than a lb. Predominantly roach. 3rd in match, 1st was 63lb, 2nd 38-12, both were carp weights. I fished 4mm expander and never saw a proper carp! BUT every time I put an expander on I had a bite, worm and corn produced bites if you waited, the pellet was almost instant. (The expanders had been doctored with a small amount of the 'B' solution I had made up). Most of the early fish came from the 10m line but as the match went on I was catching down the side with bites coming on the drop.- B.J. at Ivy House Lakes.

ye i have had a good result on Biosource feed pellets and has a 2nd in match with 6lb 40z of Roach a couple of weeks ago. I caught the fish on maggots and casters over the feed pellets.
will put a picture up on the gallery soon.

;)Nice point regarding the pellets... Basically, the trick with 'B' is to keep a certain level in the swim at all times. By using 'B' soaked feed pellets, fed every 15 min or so (as outlined in the pellet user guide), this is achieved. Take home message - even if the fish aren't eating the 'B' soaked pellets, they are still doing their job! The pellet user guide can be found at: www.biosourcebaits.com/Biosource%20recipes%20and%20suggested%20dosages%20pellets.pdfPat |

The other thing is also there might not be any fish in you swim to stimulate. As we all know bream are a shoal fish and they might just have been shoaled up elsewhere.
