I have now used this tactic several times with the same results. It is really quite easy. If you wish to hunt beaver instead of trapping them, the beaver can be brought in to a specific location, partially or totally out of the water, and stationary or nearly stationary for the shot. You simply break open a shallow portion of the beaver's dam earlier in the day and return that evening when the beaver will be most active. The beaver will go to the damaged portion of the dam to either inspect it or to actually try to repair it. At that time, the beaver may be partially or totally above the water and its motion greatly slowed. That becomes the opportune time to shoot.
Here is a video of this being put into practice from last evening...
Of course, all local laws still apply.
