I see this often late summer. It grows thick on stream banks, appears to be a monocot. I don't like walking through it, snakes and all. What should I call this stuff? I'm jealous of Adam, he could call stuff whatever he wanted. I have to try to find out what others call it.

I agree with carol. And I'd call it a WEED. It's an annual, just now going to seed in my area.

Thanks! I'm convinced that's it.
