I believe this clue is a quadruple definition!!

'go' is the first definition.
(angling is a kind of going)

'and' is a link.

'fish' is the second definition.
(angle can mean to fish)

'round' is the third definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with motion as well as being verbs in their base form.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'the' acts as a link.

'bend' is the fourth definition.
(I know that angle is a more specific form of the action bend)

Can you help me to learn more?
