Rik Belenger, variously known as Big Rik and Carp Angler, and author of our regular ‘The Carp Column’ feature, has landed the monthly contributor award for April for his efforts.
Apart from the quality of ‘The Carp Column’ it is especiallypleasing for us to make this award to him because he’s always readyto offer advice to anyone who wants it in the forum, usually beingone of the first to offer a helping hand.
Rik is one of those hugely successful anglers who have, much ofthe time, remained in the background, quietly catching big fish,especially carp, and not making a song and dance about it.
A storehouse of knowledge on most angling matters Rik has made ‘The Carp Column’ THE carp column not to be missed.
All major contributors to FISHINGmagic stand a chance of winning the Contributor of the Month award, and all other major contributors receive a bulk spool of line. All prizes are kindly donated by Relum, distributors of Rod Hutchinson, ET, and various other angling accessories
