Woman and chap catching fish (6)
I believe the answer is:
maiden
'woman' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'chap catching fish' is the wordplay.
'chap' becomes 'man' (chap can mean a man).
'catching' indicates putting letters inside.
'fish' becomes 'ide' (type of fish).
'man' placed around 'ide' is 'MAIDEN'.
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for maiden that I've seen before include "Ship's first trip" , "Damsel" , "Dotty over" , "Unmarried girl of old" , "No-score over" .)
