One who fishes with a rod and line (6)

I believe the answer is:

angler

(Other definitions for angler that I've seen before include "I may do casting" , "He fishes with rod and line" , "One proverbially exaggerating" , "Sportsman" , "who looks for compliments" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
