Winds in rare fish (5)
I believe the answer is:
reels
'winds' is the definition.
(reeling is a kind of winding)
'rare fish' is the wordplay.
'rare' becomes 'r' (listed by Oxford Dictionary of Abbreviations).
'fish' becomes 'eels' (eel is a type of fish).
'r'+'eels'='REELS'
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for reels that I've seen before include "Scottish dances" , "Folk dances" , "Totters" , "Staggers about in lively dances" , "Bobbins" .)
