I am a newbie and I am obsessed with FIF (fish in flight) that lasts merely a second. Like you I used AF-S. Lately I prefer AF-C and changed the setting to FPS priority. You might want to try taking pictures of jumping Tarpon (megalops atlanticus) while you are in Florida. Quite addictive I must say
I would use AF-C too if I was waiting and planning for a BIF shot, but this was really impromptu...
FIF? I think I know which ones you're talking about, but those are near impossible! By the time I hear them jump out of the water and turn the camera towards that direction (esp. with a 300mm), they're back in the water already, don't even talk about getting a focus lock.... If you have some trick, must share!

Here's another few shots of this Orange Bellied Flowerpeckers:
Waited patiently for this moment and luckily I got it but I missed shooting a rare mini woodpecker who drop by at the rear pond. :cry:

Took me quite a bit of pondering over which 21-24-28mm to get. There was the DA21ltd, Sigma 24/28 f1.8 and the FA*24.
In fact the K24/2.8 was already 'good enough' except that it isn't AF for one handed shots.
Didn't take an immediate liking to this lens. Large, rather heavy and the silver finishing is a pain to keep from scratches. Hate the hood.
But I think I am slowing coming to terms with this lens.
Changed out the hood to a standard and to me better looking black metal one.
Can't complain about the o/p.
FA*24/2
