Template:InfoboxCharacter Fish Sticks are Boss Salmonids that appear in Salmon Run Next Wave in Splatoon 3.
Description
A Fish Stick is a tall, tower-like pillar that is carried by a flying group of Smallfry.
The flying Smallfry will fly inland, from where they spawns in the air by the shoreline, and will place the small tower on the ground via a drill on the bottom of the tower. 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 on the top of the pillar. If the Smallfry are splatted before they can plant their pillar, it is destroyed; otherwise, it remains where it was placed 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. | ” |

Tips
- Although using the pillar as high ground can be useful, the player is vulnerable to many Boss Salmonids, such as the Maws, Stinger, and Flyfish.

Trivia
- The song that plays when the player is near a Fish Stick is an interpolated version of the melody of Completion, sung by the Smallfry that make up the Fish Stick.
- 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 Smallfry spray can also hit a player, although this is unlikely.
