In this video I am building a DIY hydrophone. A hydrophone is a underwater microphone which lets you record sounds underwater. This is a step by step tutorial, if you want to build your own hydrophone. This microphone can be used for sound design purposes but also for field recording.

Check out the blog and video by Felix Blume, which inspired me to do this and from which I have learned the process of building one.
