No takers on the clue “fishtick”? It's basically the same format as the previous few but on a shorter scale.

I can think of plenty of words to follow "fish", but none of them seem to precede "tick".
 

Mandle


Stupot

Not that. You have to put a word in the middle to make two new expressions.

fish_____tick

Mandle

ahhhhh...

I think your clue has a definite movie theme... or maybe I should say it has a reflective tone! :-D

It's different - my idea was

mirror

Mandle

Neither are the answer I was looking for.

I guess Stu's answer kind of fits but "face mask" seems a bit redundant... And the other one is a bit uncomfortable if you want to get all PC...

I don't really know what CaptainD was going for... Are those both movie titles?

Yup.

Another guess that I'm not quite happy about, but...

Hahaha! It seems this one has all kinds of possible answers!

The last 3 all seem quite valid but shall we keep going for a bit more and see if someone actually gets the answer I meant?
