Nothing too interesting for me, a pair of sunglasses, sardine can and various bits of plastic, lures and weights. Redondo Pier Ca. This was my 1st underwater cleanup . How bout you?
 
I found mostly redneck paraphernalia. A bunch of cans -mostly formerly filled with Budweiser variants (those Bud-Wei-Ser frogs would be ashamed!), yards and yards of fishing line, a wife-beater tee-shirt, jumbo sized cigarette lighter, a small rubber duckie, and a small stainless steel crucifix/cross - the kind you might find in a deluxe, upscale truckstop's jewelry section. Also my first u/w cleanup which was at Lake Jocassee, SC.

On the bright side I found a lot of the bass those rednecks were trying to catch. One of them was freaking huge!
 
Dana Point Harbor. I personally found an American flag, a BBQ grill, a fireplace lighter, a giant Budweiser bottle, a baseball cap, and an Iphone... 'Murica!

Someone else found a bong. Ha! And a flat screen TV!

It was really fun. I did a cleanup at Redondo a few months ago and didn't find anything.

Your rednecks are more wasteful than mine, lol. Another boat/dive club found a pool-side lounge chair which would have completed your set nicely. Funny thing for someone to put on a boat - a 6-ft long, non-folding lounge chair and then lose it overboard.

Maybe Bud needs to change their label from "King of Beers" to "Please don't effing litter!"
 
We of course got a ton of water bottles, also beer cans, beer bottles, bait bags, straws, dog toys, tennis balls, boat seat cushions, plastic sandwich baggies, crack baggies, and part of a styrofoam cooler. We got two 50 gal bags full of stuff off two miles of Intracoastal.
 
LOL, a whole outdoor living room set, that's what I'm talking about, complete with with booze and drugs! We just need a table to set my glasses on!
