The quest starts automatically once you're in range of the River Zora trapped on top of his boat at Zora Cove. He's surrounded by a Piranha and two Chompfins that you need to defeat in order to complete the quest.

Recommended Echoes

Echo	Description
Spark	A strange entity that moves along walls. It is wreathed in electricity and will shock anything it comes in contact with.
Chompfin	This jagged-toothed bully rules the water, chomping and spinning with a slap of its tail.

The best combat Echo to use in water is the Chompfin, since it's both strong and durable. Another good Echo to use is the Spark, since electricity is amplified in water, dealing damage and paralyzing enemies within a larger area.
