Super fish (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

brill

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'super' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.

'fish' is the second definition.
(brill is a kind of fish)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for brill that I've seen before include "Very good - fish" , "Champion" , "Excellent (abbr) - fish" , "Fab -- fish" , "catch, perhaps" .)
