Fish product for those at sea (not hard) (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

soft roe

'fish product' is the definition.
(soft roe is a fish product)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Another definition for soft roe that I've seen is " seafood".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
