You shouldn't go up to a bigger bit. This horse needs training. If you can't train him, get someone who can, it'll be for the best. With training, you should be able to ride him in a snaffle instead of covering up his lack of training with a bigger, stronger bit. If you don't train him to go well in a snaffle, you will always be having to move up to a bigger bit, and he will develop bad habits, like evading the bit (if he hasn't already)

Maybe even try a bitless bridle

Try a Shank bit

try a rubber bit, basically try anything until you find one he listens to and likes

try not to pull hard, also remember you cant get a horse to follow you by getting a tougher bit, try retrainin him, a tough bit will only hurt or aggrivate him.

How do i explain to someone what the port is when refering to a pelham bit.?

Try this site, it has a picture with an explanation:Pelham bit, used with a bit converter so only one rein is used. Even though the mouthpiece is jointed, this is a pelham, not a "snaffle." Note it also is one bit with two rings for reins, making it different from the double bridle, which uses two bits.A pelham is a type of curb bit used when riding a horse. It consists of a mouthpiece, a shank, a curb chain, 2 rein rings per side on the shank, and one cheekpiece ring on the top of the shank. The top rein ring is located next to the mouthpiece, as in a snaffle, and the rein that attaches to it is thus called the snaffle rein. The lower ring, at the bottom of the shank, is called the curb rein due to its curb action. Due to the severity of the curb in relation to a snaffle, it should not be used by novice riders. Double reins are also more complicated for a novice to handle. The pelham should be ridden mainly off the snaffle rein, with the curb rein only coming into effect when needed. Often, a bit converter, also known as a pelham rounding, is used so a pelham can be used with only one rein. This is especially helpful in the cross-country phase of eventing, so that when the reins are slipped only one must be shortened. However, use of a converter is illegal in most other horse show classes. If used with two reins, the snaffle rein should be wider to help distinguish it from the curb. * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelham_bit
