    I like the first two, the last one can be confused with a person who has a hygiene problem.

    I've seen solo diver, but rather than some sort of sought after or highly trained expertise like Instructor, Wreck/Cave diver, Photographer, etc, it seems more like a philosophy or maybe even a lack of available buddies

    You guys crack me up

    Maybe it's not an international phrase???? A Bottom Scratcher is someone who dives in rivers or rivermouths etc looking for neat stuff on the bottom like antiques or something...
    Of course the other type of Bottom Scratcher...

    Bottom scratcher is not a term familiar in the U.S.

    But then again, the name on the cereal box in the U.S is "Rice Crispies" whereas in Austalia it is Rice Bubble, and we don't have Vegemite. We call them vans, in the UK they might be called a lory, and in Australia I think the term is canby. We call it an electrical exstension cord versus "flex" in the UK, and the fish we call a "grouper" is called a "groper" in Australia, whereas a groper in the U.S. is some man or woman who likes to cop a feel off strangers, but I will guess "cop a feel" is strictly an American term.
