Could be that the fish is brought from west (reversed) and is to the east of WA(n)?

Sorry, that doesn't work either. I wonder if the setter made the same mistake as I just did?

I followed Jazzgirl’s link and the original clue is written “east to west”

I've just checked the clue on the CC site and it actually reads

Flounder - short white fish brought from east to west (6)

Apologies to Wan for questioning his thoroughness.

Thanks. Sorry to throw an unnecessary Spaniard in the works. I should have checked before posting

No apology needed, Loge, but thanks very much anyway.

Just thought that I would use the opportunity to promote the Crossword Centre puzzles to anyone who doesn’t already tackle them. There is a prize for the first correct entry pulled out of the hat, and a prize for the most correct entries in the year, so Jan is a good time to start. April’s puzzle will be the annual Round Robin with clues from around 40 setters. Please give them a go!

Best to all.

Wan

Sorry, I missed out 'from' east initially (it relies on 'brought from' for the direction of travel but, as I said, it doesn't quite work].
