Fish finger holds this for woman? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

herring

I believe this is a double definition.

'fish' is the first definition.
(herring is a kind of fish)

'finger holds this for woman?' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for herring that I've seen before include "Small silvery sea-fish" , "Saltwater fish" , "Small silvery fish" , "one could be soused" , "Fish that's kippered" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
