It takes years of practice and conditioning to make it to 70 feet. Let alone have the lung capacity and conditioning to give you a few seconds of bottom time to locate a fish, line up a shot, then get back to the surface while attached to a large fish that can take you for a ride unless you hit him PERFECTLY and stone him with a kill shot!

That was quite a feet and very "sporting" IMO

but that's just my 2 cents
