Trout die at sea, fatigued (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
tired out
'fatigued' is the definition.
('tire out' can be a synonym of 'fatigue')
'trout die at sea' is the wordplay.
'at sea' indicates anagramming the letters.
'trout'+'die'='troutdie'
'troutdie' anagrammed gives 'TIRED OUT'.
(Another definition for tired out that I've seen is " knackered".)
