Default Dock Spiders may be harmless, but don't like 'em

In California we've got Black Widows - pretty much anywhere that's cool and shaded, during summer. Neighbor got bit and ended up in emergency room. He said it was pretty small.

I was bit by a Brown Recluse (Violin Spider). Never felt it, but had to go to the emergency room. Also pretty small.

Strange thing is, these little venomous spiders (Widows, Recluses) don't give me near the scare of seeing a monster dock spider at the Lake.
