27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

I recently bought a Canon SLDR and two zoom lenses. I'm going to be making a lot trout river/fishing photos. Naturally, I'm afraid of dropping the outfit in the water. Any suggestions for waterproof bags for cameras? And what might be a good macro lens for a Canon EOS at a low price? Thanks.

As for as water proofing, I keep my camera around my neck and I don't go wading with my Canon XTi.
