Small flatfish with orange spots (6)

I believe the answer is:

plaice

(Other definitions for plaice that I've seen before include "A succulent flat-fish" , "Edible flatfish" , "Large flat fish" , "The fish sounds as if it hits the spot" , "Large flatfish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
