Here's a (most likely) counter to this suicidal asshole.

As the fish launches itself, steer yourself at maximum velocity towards the fish as if to intercept it, bu make sure to pass somewhat aside. This will make the fish overshoot, thus quickly building distance between you two and rendering its explosion harmless.

The thing is, it is basically a high speed surface-to-air (seabottom-to-water) living missile that can only properly aim the first 1,5 seconds it emerges from the plant (silo). Once it accellerates, it turns quite ungainy. Furthermore, the fish, like a torpedoe, seems to have a minimal arming distance or time travelled, i.e. it will only arm and be ready to explode after 1-1,5 seconds/3-5 yards of travel, thus if you manage to shoot past it quickly at the silo and inside a cave system, you are likely to avoid it altogather.

NEEDS TESTING by suicidal (in)volunteers.
