I'm Happy Because... We get to spend two nights at tangle wood. I See... species. I Hear... birds, people talking. I Smell... Wilderness mud. I'm Surprised We Found... We found over 10 patches of frog egg's, we found a snake. Questions and problems... What plant is this? We need to find a insect!

Submerged aquatics are hard....

Definitely not cordgrass, but impossible to identify for sure just from your photo.

The photo makes this look like it was a submerged or partially submerged aquatic plant. Is that right?

A lot of aquatic plants look really similar, so I'll not even hazard a guess what you may have found based on the photo alone. There are probably half a dozen fairly common plants that look more or less like that, and dozens more if you start getting into the species that are less common.
