i was thinking it looks like a wolf spider but i have no idea

either a huntsman or wolf, not too keen on these not good looking enough hehe other people love em though they should know

Looks wolf-spider-like to me. As I was told, you might check the eye configuration. Wolf spiders have a very specific arrangement.

(They also eat well -- very agressive towards food -- and are kind of interesting)

Fishing spider, Dolomedes sp. would be my guess. Wolf spiders, especially large ones, are not good climbers and would have a difficult time climbing up a wall like that.

I would second that opinion. Dolomedes tenebrosus most likely.

No wolf spider i've ever seen holds its legs like that, in "pairs"

Great pic of an awesome spider, Burnt!

 

[Deliverme314]

Yeah... 99% on it being dolomedes.

i'll have to tell her to catch it and send it to me....i don't think that will ever happen though haha
