Telling tall tales (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lying

'telling tall tales' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for lying that I've seen before include "Prone - mendacity" , "Prone; fibbing" , "Flat-out" , "Resting horizontally; fibbing" , "production of pork pies?" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
