Crossword Genius

Tease with a lure (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bait

This clue is a double definition.

'tease' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'a lure' is the second definition.
('bait' can be a synonym of 'lure')

'with' is the link.

(Other definitions for bait that I've seen before include "Enticement for fish" , "Deliberately annoy or taunt" , "Angler's lure for fish" , "Used to lure fish or other animals into danger" , "Taunt; enticement" .)
