Those dry bags are great, I use them anytime I'm paddling, warm or cold weather, and they also work great for camping in bear country if you need to hang your edibles up in the tree. In emergency situation they can also have the opposite effect and store water if you need to carry some. Typically, I try to keep water on the outside of the bag.
I like to clip it to a boat handle or leave a little air inside incase it falls in the water.
A good friend of mine uses those huge cans of powdered protein mix. Once empty you can fit keys, clothes, wallet, phone, and so on, and they always float. People always ask why in the hell he brought his protein powder out on the water though.
