I haven't seen a fishing spider in south Texas in more than fifty years. I remember as a youngster crawling into drainage ditches and wondered what these spiders were doing on the walls. They would crawl on the walls and walk on water. Your photograph brought back an amazing memory.

She's beautiful! I like her markings. Welcome Jaci.

Great first spot Jaci!
I've moved this awesome wolf spider to arthropods for you & ticked the "Help me ID this species" box so we can try & find the exact species for you.
