I was watching a show one time about birds & flight. They were talking about how hard it is to take off. Taking off from underwater with a damn fish about as big as you is pretty impressive.
It's seriously gotta freak the fish out, too.

We're about 1/4 mile from the ocean so we only see them fish when we're on the 
beach or walking a cliff. We've never been treated to the actual act of 
catching fish, but we've seen them haul some very large salmon back to the 
nest. Just like the video shows, there's quite a struggle to get a good grip 
and align the fish for better aerodynamics.

I have friends on Fishers Island, NY with a summer house that hosted nesting 
pairs of osprey on platforms built at the top of telephone poles.  I got to see 
them from a distance around the nest but never fishing.  Didn't know they dive 
UNDER water to snatch their prey.
