Fish I catch in a basket (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bassinet

'a basket' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'fish i catch' is the wordplay.
'fish' becomes 'bass' (bass is a kind of fish).
'catch' becomes 'net' (netting is a kind of catching).
'bass'+'i'+'net'='BASSINET'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for bassinet that I've seen before include "Baby's cradle or pram" , "Hooded basket for a baby" , "Type of cradle" , "Wicker cradle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
