A guy I always end up talking to at walmart told me about a very bad day of fishing. They ran over a dead floating deer. Now this is a "found underwater" story because the guy ended up being face to face with this deer. That reminded me about another post with a guy finding a deer's head and using his knife for some mischeif.
 
I found a beautiful old bottle in the waters off pebble beach, then when exiting, the thing dropped on the cement and broke!

Favorite finds over the years...

3 Scubapro dive knives (The Knife, large pigsticker looking thing popular in mid-late '70's)
One '76 Corvette (stolen and driven into lake travis)
steel colman cooler full of beer and ice, floating along neuteral at about 30'
lots of misc. cash and wallets.

plus all the other normal fishing gear and regular trash.
The favorites are favorites because they all meant some sort of cash in pocket to finance more diving :)
