Yes, all that's clear. The question was, if Canadians call walleye
pickerel, what do they call pickerel?

Pickerel are a southern fish. They don't range into Canada. Therefore,
the Canuckistanis have no name for them.

(I'm pretty sure someone's going to call me on this.) :-)

Close, Esox niger (chain pickerel) and Esox americanus vermiculatus
(grass pickerel) barely make Canada with their northern ranges. Of
course, we call them chain pike and grass pike -- what else?
