So we headed back out into the lake looking for walleye or northern pike.  Both Jim and Mat caught very nice Northerns, while I let a huge walleye jump back into the lake while trying to net it. :(   Let me tell you its not fun to relive the moment by watching it on video.  After we cooked up one of the pike for dinner we came across a beaver munching on a poplar.  It was amazing how close we were able to get, and we lucked out with some fantastic video.
