It was in a small lake in Washington, and I noticed it as I was about to drive home.

Young leech
ATAADI, Sounds like a rapper name
ThreeHalflings, Lil Leezy
Xeelee, 
When it grows up, it wants to be landlord.
70ms, Why oh why do I not pick up a book at bedtime instead of my phone.
Robdor, Oh yeah that’s a larval state candiru. Here’s a little video that talks about them.

variouslegumes, Could be a bug larvae. Like a little cacoon that attaches to things.
jennwiththesea, 
When you search “baby leeches” a forum question comes up, and the folks there identify something that looks exactly like this is a Planaria flatworm. coueswhitetail.com/…/40506-anyone-know-what-these…
woefkardoes, Planaria have triangular heads like in the link you posted, I agree with the others that OP’s PIC is a leach.

Gamers_Mate, Really? it looks different to the leaches I have seen. I am guessing there are different types of leaches?
thorbot, It’s a leech all right
