Fish from foreign parts (5)
I believe the answer is:
sprat
'fish' is the definition.
(I know that sprat is a type of forage fish)
'foreign parts' is the wordplay.
'foreign' is an anagram indicator (foreign order of the letters).
'parts' is an anagram of 'SPRAT'.
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for sprat that I've seen before include "Traps for small fish" , "'Set a . . . . . to catch a whale'" , "Small fish, sardine, say" , "Herring of the east North Atlantic" , "Young herring" .)
