Poles chat about take (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

snatch

'take' is the definition.
(I know that seize is the is a more specific form of the action of snatch.)

'poles chat about' is the wordplay.
'poles' becomes 'SN' (North and South poles).
'about' indicates an anagram.
'chat' is an anagram of 'atch'.
'sn'+'atch'='SNATCH'

(Other definitions for snatch that I've seen before include "Few bars of music - grab" , "E. Mediterranean nation" , "Seize quickly and eagerly" , "Sieze or grab" , "Bit of a song" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
