Report location of seafood (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plaice

'seafood' is the definition.
(I know that plaice is a type of seafood)

'report location' is the wordplay.
'report' shows a homophone (sound like).
'location' becomes 'place' (a location is a place).
'place' sounds like 'PLAICE'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for plaice that I've seen before include "The fish sounds as if it hits the spot" , "A succulent flat-fish" , "Important food fish" , "Flatfish, valued as food" , "Edible flatfish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
