This was found next to our ditch on Harsens Island. The island is experienced flooding this season, and a great deal our property is flooded. The ditches are swollen and we witnessed one diving the other day in the ditch that is filled with many leopard frogs and bullfrogs.
That sounds heavenly for a fishing spider. It looks like Dolomedes triton to me also.
