Dr Adam Smith - Australian national champion, scientist, author of Underwater fishing in Australia and New Zealand [46]Sumerian armies started using spears in wars as early as 3,000 BC. Two thousand years later, the Greeks modified this idea by using pikes that were 2 to 3 metres long. The Macedonian sarissa was similar to the pikes but around 4 to 6 metres long and gave them more power over the Greeks. Hunt, Peter.

Green Dragon Crescent Blade, a guan dao wielded by General Guan Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Blue water hunting involves diving in open ocean waters for pelagic species. It involves accessing usually very deep and clear water and chumming for large pelagic fish species such as marlin, tuna, wahoo, or giant trevally. Blue water hunting is often conducted in drifts; the boat driver drops divers and allow them to drift in the current for up to several kilometres before collecting them. Blue water hunters can go for hours without seeing any fish, and without any ocean structure or a visible bottom the divers can experience sensory deprivation and have difficulty determining the size of a solitary fish. One technique to overcome this is to note the size of the fish's eye in relation to its body. Large specimens have a proportionally smaller eye. No UK Spear Cap 3 Decision on F-35 until 2018".
