Try jumping then firing just as you reach the highest point of the jump.
(Still aim at the feet)  The higher trajectory will increase the splash
damage radius.  As the others have said try to predict where your opponent
will be and shoot there.
Also, don't get so involved in trying to hit the other guy that you forget
to keep moving.  Try to be unpredictable in your movements.  The longer you
stay alive the more rockets you can throw at him.  :-)
