Big fan of this thread.  Feels like we're watching NASA trying to contact a lost satellite.  I hope you get your phone back, eventually, though.

I didn't lose my phone but had in just in a pocket...salt water plus iPhone not a good mix.  Now, I'm rolling with my old iPhone 5S and used to waiting a lot for it to work.

Lifeproof case plus ziploc bag then in my pocket. So far so good.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.  ~John Buchan

If you don't have a waterproof case, double ziploc bags would hopefully keep water out of the inner bag long enough for a self rescue if you went swimming.
