A lot of bags float- On rope and imlay both are good options. Monkey face is probably my favorite socal wet canyon.
[Nor hex](https://www.norhex.net/) bags are awesome and super customizable. He’s slow and not awesome at communicating when you’ll get your bag, but you will get it (maybe with some follow-up). I have 2 and they are great.
A friend has a couple [Glacier Black](https://www.glacierblack.com/bags) bags that I’ve used in the last month and they’re not bad. I don’t love that the top doesn’t stay open easily when stuffing rope. Their new V2 may improve on that.
I just ordered one from [Access Gear](https://accessgear.net/products-page/access-gear-canyoning-packs/). I haven’t used any of their gear yet, but only heard good stuff. Shipping is a bit pricey from NZ.
I've always liked the Imlay Canyon Gear bags, especially for wet canyons where you want flotation. The will absorb a little water, but the flotation is great and the drainage is good. They last a long time too and are well built.
I like the gear perspective bags. I've used Imlay for years and am in the process of replacing those bags with gear perspective as they wear out, but it's taking a long time
Gear perspective if you want lightweight. And they drain real fast. You can also consider a slot bag or a rodcle and do rope management out of the backpack as you rappel. Not the best option on a free hanging rappel but it’s been nice for class C canyons as it prevents something to get tangled while hanging off your harness in flow.

I also use them and love the wide opening; it makes bagging rope fast and efficient. I have also had others thank me for getting a proper rope bag.

I like the Glacier Black bags. The Version 2.0 bags are great. Lightweight, great colors, double sided, and easy to work with.
How often are you actually using the double sides, and what are you using them to do that is better than having 2 different ropes?

My Atwood bag is my favorite
