How should I alter my diet?

Hi guys, I tried to bulk starting back in October and, as you’ll see below, it did sort or work for a while. Problem is I started a new Job in about Jan my schedule got pretty full and erratic. I was able to maintain eating schedule (somewhat) and maintained it much better than my lifting schedule.

But as you can see, I just started gaining weight, body fat % and lost some muscle. Admittedly, I look husky now.

Lean Body Mass ______ 156.3____________168.7________________ 165.8
Body Mass Fat __________12.3____________19.4_________________ 27.3

PBF____________________7.30%_________ 10.30%______________14.10%

I did pretty well that first month, but those last several pounds were basically just fat.

My job is now settled down so I have time to start lifting regularity again so I’m gonna start up again. But should I alter my diet so I don’t take on too much fat. I understand fat must come with muscle gain, but should I or is there way to change my diet to lessen my fat gain?

I tried to take in 3000 to 3100 calories a day at 30% protein, 50% carbs and 30% fat.

Should I change that at all?

Thanks.
