I keep my camera on a lanyard around my neck and tucked into my waders. It was never in a bag and thats why it was ruined the second time it got dunked in a river! OOPS! Since its on my neck I can turn it on and shoot one hand it when I get a fish worth shooting. I bought an Intova camera which comes with a waterproof case for $140. So now I don't worry about the camera going for a swim. I find my fishing partners and the river to be more photogenic than the fish, at least there around more than the fish. My memories are about the people and place, Enjoy!
