Who likes Beaver???

I thought I would get out for a couple hours after work. Hit up the Dupage in the naperville area around a couple aqueducts. First cast using a 1/8 oz jig with a white 3" mr. twister was hit by a small bass, who proceeed to unhook itself on its first jump. After about 30 min another bite and again on the first jump, unhooked itself. Neither were of great size. I fished for about an hour more with no luck.

However, as I was leaning against the bridge, with the water of the aqueduct at my right entering into the river, a beaver came swimming, less than two feet away from me, from under the bridge and proceeded to climb upon the concrete of the aqueduct. He/She let the rushing water go through its fur for a bit, meanwhile I'm fusing with my camera phone trying to get a pic while being as stealth as possible. I mean I was like 4 feet away! While trying to get a pic, of course the wife calls. I hit silent and try again. Another call from her and again I hit silent. A third call and by this time I'm pissed and answer angerly and tell her I'll call her back. By the time I get the camera back on the beaver was just about to climb through the grate of the aqueduct and all I managed was this lousy pic. (yes, I know the difference between a muskrat and a beaver and this was a beaver) So anyway, enjoy the horrible pic and hopefully I see it again sometime. It did make the evening more fun though!

Sorry for disappointing 99 percent of you that read the title and got excited....
