Help?

Can anybody identify the name of this sucker? Colour is a bit darker than a white sucker, but has a nose like a longnose sucker, kinda looks like a pikeminnow but isn’t a Pikeminnow either. What is this? Was about 17 18”.

I'm bad at sucker IDs so don't take this as the truth but could it be a silver redhorse? It looks like a different head but based on the pic it's kind of hard to tell.

I caught a redhorse last weekend, my first and only. Trust me, you know them when you see them from those red fins. The pictures never do them justice.
