Can't fit too much in there with the integrated weights. But I can fit a signal mirror if I think it may be needed. Only thing that always goes in there is my mesh bag for collecting live or dead shells. If I find none it stays in there.

With my BC I carry a small spool and SMB, a signal mirror and whistle, stuff my wife picks up and trash I find.
With my bp/w, most stuff is clipped on as I don't use a pocket and have a good excuse not to take on the shells and crap. I do vary what I carry depending on the dive however. So diving from shore I usually carry the minimum, boat diving generally more.

I clip off most of the stuff I carry.
In my pockets I carry:
a buddy line
shears
a tube of icing (yes, the kind you buy in the grocery, I'm diabetic)
sometimes my gloves
sometimes a spare light
trash I pick up on the dive

CPR pocket mask
safety sausage
flashlight
license, credit card, cash (we've lost our car keys under water before, so it's just useful to have just in case)
DAN & c-card (the c-card is out of habit, but the DAN card is in case we need to make an emergency call and don't have time to dig around for it in the card)
mesh bag for trash
On the various loops of my BCD, I have a knife, noisemaker, camera, slate, whistle, & fin holder.
I haven't the foggiest idea how people carry a spare mask... my pockets are simply not that big, esp. with my integrated weights!!
