Break the rules relating to baits (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lures

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'baits' is the definition.
('lure' can be a synonym of 'bait')

'break the rules relating' is the wordplay.
'rules' anagrams to 'LURES'.
Though, I am unsure how the anagram is indicated.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lures that I've seen before include "Baits or attractions" , "Rules with decoys" , "Draws" , "Tempts or entices" , "Baits, decoys" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
