Default Dock - Wolf, Fisher, etc...

Funny -- In the wake of the dive guy's Brown Recluse bite, I was reading my spiders & insects field guide at home the other day and started thumbing through the spiders -- found a whole page of various spiders that resembled "dock" spiders. I'd always assumed (or had heard growing up) that they were wolf spiders. Well, some are, but others are definitely fisher spiders. No mistaking that body shape, color and markings. So cool. Just glad they ain't in my house down here.
