David Doolittle suggests establishing a permanent line in wrecks like the Bass. 
This is, in fact a good idea, and I have talked to a couple of other divers
about putting one there.  The only hitch (as it were) is that wreck diving
etiquette, unlike that of caving, frowns on leaving permanent lines.  In fact,
on commonly fished/dived wrecks there are sometimes cleanup charters with the
explicit purpose of removing line from the wreck, including both lost fishing
lines and divers' lines.  I'm not sure how long a permanent line would last in
the Bass, although the fact that it isn't frequently penetrated helps.
