Found this little fella on a piece of weed after hooking the bottom today and i was wondering whats the name of it and what it would turn into?

It was around a 1 inch long

Hi Fish Stalker
It looks like a caseless caddis larva of Rhyacophila dorsalis and will turn into the Sandfly Sedge below.

Hope that helps

OB
