Good friends Greg and Geralyn Miller arrived on Wednesday for Geralyn’s annual birthday celebration on the water, and the Walleye Queen was on top of her game once again.  Due to the mayfly hatch on some of the lakes we fish, we switched to another body of water without such a prominent hatch.  The move…
