That fishy looking Buffalo Bill? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cody

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'buffalo bill?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in other clues)

'that fishy looking' is the wordplay.
'that fishy' becomes 'cod' (type of fish).
'looking' becomes 'y' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'cod'+'y'='CODY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cody that I've seen before include "Surname of Buffalo Bill" , "Buffalo Bill's surname" .)
