Those big girls are rowdy right now too.  Kinda skinny after the spawn. Fish counter check over 150 lings yesterday.

Ling is one of my very favorite fish ... big chunk fried in a cast iron pan with plenty of Slap Ya Mama ... add eggs and a big biscuit w/butter and raspberry jam and I'm in heaven ... :)

I'm not really sure what's different, noting that my wife and I have tried virtually every Cajun spice mix there is, but we like Slap Ya Mama the best.  We tried the 'hot' version (we like hot!) but the 'original blend' version is the best ... if we need more heat, we shake a little cayenne on.  BTW, Many stores have it nowadays, or you can order it from any of several sites online ... we buy the 2- or 3-pack big ones.

I know the pics are no longer exciting to see,  but I’m finally ready for finish primer.  Thank God!   It’s painful, literally and figuratively.   Quite a bit more coverage than the first coat and blocking.

Todd,

It is looking better, every step of the way.  Soon you will be out and about pulling fish on the deck and love every minute of it.

Cheers!

I agree with Rbob, looking better every time you post... pretty soon you will be fretting over paint runs and wondering when to call it a day on that front. In any case, you certainly have a great foundation to move onto the next part, and all the sanding you have done so far is in the rear view mirror.

I blew the boat barn out today.  Washed, degreased, and tacked the boat.  Got 1 coat of finish primer on the entire outside of the hull and quite a bit of the cockpit.  Tomorrow 1 more coat over what I did today.
