A LOT of players have that one "Water Disc" in their bag for those certain general water shots. RIGHT?!? Whats your current "Water Disc" and why? Or do you just shoot for it with the "I got this attitude"??? What you got?!?
 
I use champion beasts and have zero fear of water, I'll just go in and grab it anyway. I have over 80 discs I pulled from the water at riverside park. I used to throw dx like a wraith or destroyer but I decided to just throw a disc I can just throw to the basket without a bunch of hyser flip, new dx is awesome but I really would rather use those in the open.

Just 'F$%king go for it', you win some you lose some, I will tend to choose a less favorable disc, something I care less if I were to dunk it. But if it's not deep then it doesn't matter I'll go swimming.
 
I bought a Dragon when I first started for water shots. It actually works surprisingly well for me. I can rip that thing clear to the other side and if I lose it, I could really care less.
 
I take my 171g #2 Driver, 175g Hyra, and Dragon at one of my home courses. The course has 8 of 18 holes play a round the pond. I play alot of rounds there maybe 50 or so. I can say I have never lost a disc. I don't use the dragon at most other courses but the the other two disc I do.
 
No need for a water disc. Just throw whatever disc is right for the shot regardless if water is there or not. Not going to let water affect my disc selection.
 
Ill use an old Champ Sidwinder or a old Pro Starfire I can pick up for 4$ at the shop. Latitutudes are a bit pricey to dare.
 
Whatever works best for the hole, or i'll just play around it. If there is a huge chance I will lose a disc, i'll probably skip the hole.
 
DX Teebirds. But i haven't lost one yet. It's when i'm confident i will make the shot no matter what and pass over the teebirds when i lose plastic in water. :\
 
I started throwing my Hydra, to get over my lack of Confidence with water, and I discovered that I liked throwing it in general. I still use it over water, but it's because I like it for straight, short distance drives. I have overcome my issues with water. ...for the most part. I pretty much know what I can throw safely across water. So it doesn't bother me using other discs now.
