Picture of unidentified spider

Comments & ID Thoughts

Barboursville, WV
Aprox. 4 or 5 inch diagonal legspan
Was about 3 or 4 feet of the ground on door
My guess was a six spotted fishing spider but it's a bit larger than I've ever seen personally and the colors were insanely vibrant.

The genus is correct, but I think this looks like a White-banded Fishing Spider to me (Dolomedes albineus)
