Is there a way to filter "picked" photos?

Hi, I'm reletively new to lightroom.  I'm not even sure which version I have, I assume CC because I bought a subscription that comes with Lightroom and 1TB of cloud space.  The trouble I am having is this - I have an album of 750ish photos, I have gone through them all and marked the picked flag on the ones I want to keep.  I was thinking it would be as simple as sorting based on the flag, but that does not seem to be an option.  I only see sorting for star rating.  All my searches for this filter function bring a lot of results but that all seem to be talking about a very different version that has buttons/bars that I do not see at all.  I'd rather not scroll through all 750 photos again just to mark a star rating on the non-picks so I can sort and easily select/delete in one batch.

Am I totally missing some easy filter that I am looking for?  Here's the version I have and what my UI looks like:

 

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer,

Sean

Selondon & Akash, I found it, thank you! I completely missed the little filter button to the right of the search bar, it was staring me in the face the whole time!
