What do Haddock, Sparrow and Hook have in common?

Pinpoint #918 gives you five clues, one at a time; the fewer you need, the better your score. Take "Haddock" and "Sparrow" together: the link is not the literal meaning.

Hints

Hint 1: where to start

Ask what "Haddock", "Sparrow" and "Hook" could all be examples of.

Hint 2: a solid foothold

The category has this shape: "F________ s__ c_______"; the hidden words have 9, 3 and 8 letters.

Hint 3: nearly there

The last clue, "Ahab (from Moby-Dick)", is the plainest of the five: work out what it is, then fit it to that shape.
