Flyfish

Flyfish are Boss Salmonids that appear in Salmon Run in.

Description
They consist of a single Chum using an Inkjet-like contraption to fly around. Flyfishes will stop to fire a barrage of up to 8 missiles; similar to the Tenta Missiles, these can lock on to up to two Inklings at a time. Direct hits results in an instant splat. Flyfishes have two buckets that fire the missiles. Players need to throw a splat bomb into the buckets while they are firing missiles. Once the missile launchers are destroyed, the flyfish drops its Golden Eggs and the Chum pilot.

Tips & Strategies

 * Flyfish are one of three Boss Salmonids that can attack players without having close proximity to them, the others being the Stinger and the Drizzler. Due to the long-range threat of these three Boss Salmonids, destroying them should have high priority over destroying other Boss Salmonids.
 * Players need to coordinate which player will throw a bomb in which missile launcher. This can be done by observing which missile launcher the other player is closer to, and safely assuming that it's the one they will destroy.
 * Voice chat also works: "You take left, I take right!"


 * It is possible for a player to quickly destroy a Flyfish in one missile-launch cycle without the assistance of another player. Throw the bomb as soon as the hatch opens, then immediately recharge ink for the second bomb and throw it as soon as possible.
 * Aiming bombs at the missile launchers is not guesswork. While holding, a line appears on the screen showing exactly where the bomb will go.
 * Flyfish can only fire 4 missiles if one of their missile launchers is destroyed. So, if there is not enough time to destroy both missile launchers at the moment, destroying one of them is still a good idea.
