A Tornado to start with is nice and relaxing, made better by inklings who know you can throw eggs in to the basket from the middle platform. Having the Decavitor makes cutting through the salmonids much easier too. I still hit the water, but never mind. It's a decent start to the Run.
On to the second wave, tide high, and Hydra Splatling in hand. A Maws interrupts my first charge, but that's okay, not much else is happening. I realise I should probably using the weapon to its best rather than grabbing eggs, so I make sure I get some full charges and release them. It works well! An empty Fish Finger then seems like a good place to stay relatively safe, so I head up there and find I can't reach much. I drop down, maybe by accident, and just before the inevitable Maws showed up anyway, and get back in to the action. There's not much for me to do, though, so I just collect eggs. Another decent wave.
I finish the Run with the .52 Gal, still at high tide. The bosses remain simple to start, nothing that the Hydra Splatling can't stop in its tracks, and we have eggs galore around the basket before we know it. Even when things get a little busy we stay on top of the situation. A couple of Stingers could pose problems, but I have a couple of Inkstrikes, and need just one to clear the left side of the Junction. More Stingers appear, but there's no Lid to obstruct them, and a squidmate is there with a Splashdown anyway. The only real problem we have is cramming all the eggs in the basket, but we get a decent amount.
But it's not over yet! Here comes Horrorboros, and at high tide. I have the Octobrush for this, so I may as well just go for a swim, but I'm sure our Hydra Splatling will have Boros under control. I miss Boros's bomb with my first egg throw, and then it flies too far away from the nearby eggs, so I just go for body shots. I still miss one, but I don't think anyone saw. Things get a bit hair as a Steel Eel chases me, then Boros releases a bomb, and I can't get away. Another Steel Eel comes for me, but a small step confuses them, and a bit of splatting leaves us with lots of eggs and a big Boros above us. A good bit of throwing later, and Boros is splatted, for a princely two silver scales. Woomy!
