Hi all,
I see this month I'm not the only one struggling.

I thought 23D would have been MUTTS but it doesn't look to be the case so stuck there.

23/30 is the one giving me the biggest grief.
Altogether hot pig covers old snake in sh1t (4,4,3,6)
* * O * L * * * A*D S*N*E*

Thanks

RBQC, Hook, Line and Sinker, altogether, for 23/30?

Excellent Malone, thank you.
Always simple when you see it !

I agree 25/30 must be HOOK LINE AND SINKER but if it is HONKER (pig) covering an anagram of OLD SNAKE + IN (hot) then where does the other I come from?
(If the IN in the clue is part of the anagram where does HOT fit in?)
Is it my error or compiler's?
