Crossword Genius

Fish and game (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sardines

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fish' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'game' is the second definition.
(sardines is a hiding game)

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for sardines that I've seen before include "Cumulative hiding game" , "Squash-together party game" , "Children's game - fish" , "Small fish, usually canned" , "Young pilchards" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
