I need to find a comfortable, water resistant, fanny pack.

I use the   (You need to Login or Register.  It's capacity is 1.5L, so it is small (which also makes it easily manageable).  I'll stress that it is water RESISTANT, not waterproof.  During an all-day rain, the contents will likely still be dry, but if you take a dip with it, the contents could get a little damp.  However, there are fanny packs in this line that would be waterproof (e.g., have a roll-down top).  But I was looking for SMALL.  

I wear it a couple of times a week during my walks in the woods, so it wears well.  For this purpose, I have a water bottle clipped to the belt, along with a pedometer.

During canoe trips, it is the fanny pack, that I mentioned above, on portages (and day trips).  The belt is where I hang my nalgene bottle and bear spray holster.

Of course, with this level of use, it gets filthy so it has been through the washing machine a few times.
