The usual stuff
dive knife (happened swim into the diver that lost it about 5 minutes later)
sunglasses
weights
tires
etc.
also found an open umbrella, but I left it there
and a car hood - this one was strange because it was out in the ocean pretty far from where anyone could have easily lost it. This was during a clean up and I tried to pull it out and lift bag it back to shore, but it was stuck in there pretty tight.

We thought we found Jimmy Hoffa in a 55 Gallon Drum about 1/2 mile below Hoover dam. We didn't stop to look though. I've found many anchors, a wrench, boat props, a boat, fishing pole, dive float, a kitchen pot, boat stove, boat batteries, Golf balls, snorkle, weights, an engine block, a parking meter, old bottles, ID for Yellowstone park employee, shoes, Bowling ball, baseball, tires, sun glasses, and a fire hydrant.

I found: sun glasses
a dollar bill(2) and change
a BC
a small dive light
one fin (with name/phone#....worth a case of beer)
lots of lures
in bad viz, a uppertorso of a mannequin (a heart stopper)
a bicycle
once I saw a lure that lead me to a cannonball that lead me to a nice pole/reel that lead me to a downrigger, it had a piece of a boat attached.
I helped salvage a 40ft. Scarab after boat races on Lake Mich.
I found my wifes watch in zero viz @ 15 ft.
I found a sailboat hatch cover for a gal who had let the hatch accidently slide off her boat in the same zero viz lake (Lake Macatawa)
A nice fishing pole and reel
Twice I helped release perch off lines that had caught in the rocks and broke away from the pole, both times close to 30 perch were released.
A dive knife
Lead weights
Several ice cold Bud Lights
Lots and lots of anchors....I've sold them to pay for air and at 20 to 30 ea. that's allot of air.

I found a life long hobby while diving. Maybe next dive I will find a career.
How does someone easily lose a car hood?
"Honey, the hood flew off again. Should we turn around and get it?"
"Nah, I'll have to take the car out of cruise control. We'll get another one at the next stop."

A timex watch, still ticking.
the lower half of a rescue body
an anchor
A good buddy of mine found a guys mask in a local quarry. It turned out they were both scheduled on the same NC wreck trip that summer. He returned the mask. While diving one of the wrecks he found a mask on the wreck. The same mask, belonging to the same individual.

Countless snorkels, fins, weights, etc
A dead rat, freshly so, and very, very large. Actually, twice. Once near Half Moon Caye in Belize, once in Bonaire
My sanity!
A pile of household trash in Cozumel.
Parts of I think a piano in Connecticut. :06:

Every time we dive under the resort docks, we see a couple 'o dock carts - you know, those ones with the big wheels for hauling gear to the boats.
Anyway, yesterday Tony desided to bring one up, but we still had 2/3rd's of our dive left. So I grabbed one end, he grabbed the other and we hauled (sometimes wheeled in the silt) this monster around for a half hour until we got it to the exit dock. The thing stunk up the back of my Explorer like a dead fish.
