Driving a new Toyota Tundra is a treat in itself – but even more so for MWC anglers that qualify for contingency money.  Each qualifying tournament sported a $1,000 bonus and the World Walleye Championship jumped to $2,500.  No one cashed in for the previous year’s Championship, so the $2,500 became $5,000 this fall.  It ended up bonus cash for David Kolb of Ada, Michigan and Dan Byers of Cedar Springs, Michigan.  As it so happens – both Kolb and Byers purchased their own 2007 Toyota Tundras earlier in the year.  The duo split the cash evenly due to their 10th place finish for the Championship.  They weighed in 75.29 pounds for their 15 fish – a 5.02 pound average.

Dan Byers towed his boat with a different truck brand for 20 years.  He liked the incentives from Toyota in the fishing circuit so decided to purchase his first Tundra.  “I have found this Tundra to be the very best vehicle I have ever owned,” shared Byers.  “The performance coupled with the trim package is amazing and far exceeds any other vehicle I have ever owned.  I am very thankful for the cash bonus awarded by Toyota and hope they stay on as a sponsor for many more years.  I have been talking up all the features of the Toyota Tundra to all my friends.”
