Varacosa avara, a wolf spider, possibly. The leg banding is similar to a fishing spider, so is the pointed abdomen. The main visible difference is the eye position. In general, wolf spiders have a pair of big eyes on top of the head. Fishing spiders have a bit of a snout with the eyes facing forward and downwards (to see into water). We don’t see many pictures of this dpider, thank you for posting one.
This is another Wolf Spider (Lycosidae), Gladicosa gulosa.
