fishing for an angel

she had a goal, attached to her one-track mind
Could not be dissuaded, our Clementine
She put a fishing rod and reel together
And went out to fish in Christmas weather

Why is she using a star for bait?
This was asked by our good friend Nate.
She’s fishing for an angel for the Christmas tree
What do you suggest her bait should be?
