I've never seen a Pickerel that looks like that! Tough loss then, sorry to hear

Just for the hell of it, lets say I was a noob and had no idea what an esox was, could you clarify that for me, that is if I were a noob and all?

No, pickeral have the genus Esox. (E. americanus for example) This is an African cichlid, Rhamphochromis esox.
