Set one's sights on going to fishing spot, for example, briefly - all coming back with Heather's relative (6)
I believe the answer is:
kalmia
'set' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for kalmia that I've seen is " mountain laurel".)
I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
