"Moby-Dick" captain (4)

I believe the answer is:

ahab

'moby-dick captain' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ahab that I've seen before include "Melville's Captain" , "Jezebel's husband or captain in 'Moby Dick'" , "Captain hunting the whale Moby-Dick" , "Jezebel was wife of this King of Israel" , "Husband of Jezebel" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Jonesin', the LA Times, the Universal and the Newsday.
