Dolomedes scriptus
(Striped Fishing Spider)

Comments & ID Thoughts

Dolomedes scriptus. Striped Fishing Spiders. Two spiders fishing together on a rock. Both have feet in the water to feel for vibrations of potential prey. The water has a lot of algal blooms, it is polluted and too shallow. The spiders spent hours doing this, I left before they did.
