View communist eating fish (6)
I believe the answer is:
regard
'view' is the definition.
(I know that view can be written as regard)
'communist eating fish' is the wordplay.
'communist' becomes 'red' (red can informally mean communist).
'eating' is an insertion indicator.
'fish' becomes 'gar' (type of gar).
'red' enclosing 'gar' is 'REGARD'.
(Other definitions for regard that I've seen before include "Deem, view" , "Look at; admiration" , "Consider; gaze at" , "Care" , "Look - respect" .)
