Viper shaped head and pupils that are elongated vertically are the 2 identifying traits I look for in a water moccasin. Your pic has neither so i vote harmless water snake

I've never gotten that far. I mean, cotton mouth can water snake is obvious from characteristics easier to see than pupils. Head shape can be a bit deceiving, but it usually obvious on cotton and copper.
