Template:InfoboxCharacter Fish Sticks are Boss Salmonids that appear in Salmon Run Next Wave in Splatoon 3.
Description
When a Fish Stick spawns, a tall, tower-like pillar is planted on the ground, carried by a flying group of Smallfry. After planting the pillar, the Smallfry fly in a circle and slowly rain down ink to cover the surrounding area. A Fish Stick can defeated by splatting the Smallfry above it, either by using nearby high ground or by taking advantage of the blind spot directly around the pillar to ink it and climb up. Once all the Smallfry have been splatted, the Fish Stick will drop three Golden Eggs. If the Smallfry are splatted before they can plant their pillar, it is destroyed; otherwise, it remains until the end of the wave and can be used as high ground against other Salmonids.
Quotes
“ | We have proudly classified an entirely new Boss Salmonid known as a "Fish Stick." As the name implies, flying Salmonids have been observed planting a large "stick" to gain a tactical advantage. Could it be exploited somehow? Our research continues. | ” |

The following text is quoted from the Salmonid Field Guide.[2]

Trivia
- The song that the Fish Stick sings interpolates the melody of Completion.
- It is possible to be damaged by the Fish Stick. When it plants the pillar, the screw will deal damage if the player is under it and the ink the Smallfries spray can also hit a player, although this is unlikely.
