Personally I would use LINQBridge to get you LINQ goodness:

double max = lst.OfType<double>().Max();

It might be overkill to use LINQBridge just for a single "find the maximum element" query, but of course you can then use it everywhere else in your project too... and your code will be more idiomatic when you eventually move off .NET 2 :)

double max = double.MinValue;
foreach (object item in lst)
{
   if (item is double)
   {
       if ((double)item > max)
       {
           max = (double)item;
       }
   }
}
