What angler will do, catching nothing in seaside area (5)
I believe the answer is:
coast
This clue might be a double definition.
'what angler will do catching nothing' is the first definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'seaside area' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for coast that I've seen before include "seaside area" , "Cruise" , "Diminish, lessen" , "Run without power" , "Make no effort" .)
