          1. Also found SPEARFISH(ES), EARPLUG(S), FISHY, PEARLY/PEARLISH, EARLY/ISH, HYPE, FUGUE, didn’t catch FISHEYE 🙁

      1. A day or two late, but PRAISEFUL-LAUGHY was what I got. Took a long time as there were a lot of words in this grid. I liked SPEARFISH(ES), FRUGAL, etc but couldn’t pair them.

    1. Bernie Horowitz

      Thanks, I’ll pass. Sounds like something Bucky the cat of Get Fuzzy would serve up.
      OA Fisheye Earplug for me. A Zippy moment, while we’re on the Comics page.

  1. PRAISEFUL-LAUGHY taffy has chewy, fruity goodness!!

    GARFISHES-SLURPY… mmmm, 7-Eleven has a new flavor!

    1. SHIPFUL°—LARGELY
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      FISHSPEAR°⁻—RAGULY
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      FRUGS—SHIPSHAPELY°⁻
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      ° OED
      ⁻ hyphenated

    1. Well done. I had the unconnected ‘shagpile fury’ which is fun, smacks of carpet wars but didn’t see your ‘yearfuls’. Good one.

  2. As usual, I know this won’t be OA, which I’m not going to check, so as to play more but GARFISHES SPLURGY MW , OED. and garfishes sleepily in many dictionaries SLURPILY

  3. PRAISEFUL — LAUGHY

    Couldn’t see a pair for FUSELAGES, FURFURAL, PIPEFISHES, GARFISHES, FISHEYES, HIGHLIFE, or FRAGILEY

  4. OA. Lots of compound words in the solutions to these puzzles. I saw EARPLUG first and noticed FISH, but spent too much time looking for a word like G****FISH before noticing FISHEYE.

  5. Finally came up with OA after coming up with GARFISHES, but missed SPLURGY (new word for me), and also had PRAISEFUL but missed LAUGHY (again, new word). I need to go back to my 10th grade english teacher with some vocab questions now… Did also find SHIPLAP, SHIPSHAPE, and SPEARFISH without pairs. ALIOW!

  6. You guys are good!

    All I could come up with was a very lame

    SUGARFISHES* SPRYLY

    * per Wikipedia another name for cusk-eel

  7. SHIPLAP – PUGS – SURFY, ie the vibe/decor at my nonexistent beach house.

    I found FRAGILE and PLUSHY (all letters, no connect) and SPEARFISH – HAULAGE (no Y).

  8. I couldn’t connect today. I finally quit at PLAGUE – EARLYISH, with an unused ‘F’.
    I had seen FISHY and EARPLUGS but they can’t connect. I didn’t see FISHEYE ! LOL

  9. ARGUSFISHES* – SHAPELY
    GARFISHES – SPLURGY*

    could not come with OA or another fully-accepted-by-LB solution… oh well…
