A water based filler is easier to use; just trowel it on, let it dry for a 
few hours and sand.

A mist coat of sealer on the wood prior to filling will reduce drag and it 
will apply quicker.
The sealer is then sanded off as the filler is sanded.  If you are real 
bold, stain first but
be careful to stop sanding at the sealer to prevent sanding off the stain 
in areas.

After removing the finish, sand everything with 100. Fill. Sand with 180
To fill finer pores, thin the filler and reapply. Sand with 320.

This and others procedures will be covered in a series of articles by David 
Koelzer and myself.

Now, where's that ambition... it's around here somewhere...
