Spot, so we hear, for fish (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plaice

'for fish' is the definition.
(plaice is a kind of fish)

'spot so we hear' is the wordplay.
'spot' becomes 'place' (synonyms).
'so we hear' shows a homophone (sound like).
'place' sounds like 'PLAICE'.

(Other definitions for plaice that I've seen before include "N. Atlantic flatfish" , "Swimmer" , "Large flatfish" , "A succulent flat-fish" , "Position the fish, we hear" .)
