Put on the hook from a debit? (6)
I believe the answer is:
baited
'put on the hook from a debit?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'from a debit?' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates anagramming the letters (the anagram comes from the same letters).
'a'+'debit'='adebit'
'adebit' is an anagram of 'BAITED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for baited that I've seen before include "Jeered with fish food?" , "Lured" , "tempted" , "Lure, entrapped" , "Put something on a hook to attract fish" .)
