One with inclination to go to river? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

angler

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

'one with inclination' is the definition.
(something angled or inclined)

'go to river?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'go' could be 'angle' (angling is a kind of going) and 'angle' is present in the answer.
'river?' could be 'r' and 'r' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for angler that I've seen before include "A rod and line fisherman" , "I may do casting" , "who looks for compliments" , "One proverbially exaggerating" , "Isaac Walton wrote of the 'Compleat' one" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
