Breaks out of snare and nets (5)
I believe the answer is:
earns
'nets' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'breaks out of snare' is the wordplay.
'breaks out of' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'break out' mean this).
'snare' with letters rearranged gives 'EARNS'.
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for earns that I've seen before include "Deserves for snare" , "Gains by work" , "Makes - deserves (by one's efforts)" , "Acquires by effort" , "Merits through work" .)
