I believe the answer is:

wrasse

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

'fish' is the definition.
(wrasse is a kind of fish)

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for wrasse that I've seen before include "Bright marine fish" , "Swears about the tropical marine fish with strong teeth" , "Type of fish" , "Fish - swears (anag)" , "catch in the deep" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
