I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dinner to be taken with this?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'itinerant chief stalking' is the wordplay.
'itinerant' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'chief'+'stalking'='chiefstalking'
'chiefstalking' anagrammed gives 'FISHING-TACKLE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fishing tackle that I've seen before include "Angling equipment" , "Angler's equipment" , "Hook, line and sinker" , "Equipment required to catch a trout, for example" , "Angler's kit" .)
