Comments & ID Thoughts
My initial guess is that this is a dark fishing spider, Dolomedes tenebrosus. The body looks to measure nearly an inch, with leg span of nearly 3 inches. I found this spider in my garden shed which is near a tree line with open pasture behind that. I am not near any creeks or moving water.
