Succeed with fish: around ten caught (5)
I believe the answer is:
excel
'succeed' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'fish around ten caught' is the wordplay.
'fish' becomes 'eel' (eel is a kind of fish).
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'ten' becomes 'x' (roman numeral).
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'x'+'c'='xc'
'eel' going around 'xc' is 'EXCEL'.
'with' is the link.
(Other definitions for excel that I've seen before include "Do superbly well" , "Do better than, give great performance" , "well above average" , "Eclipse" , "Be very good at, better than others" .)
