Ummm, and use a pot your wife/girl won't make your spaghetti in next week, or use it to 'clean your clock' when she finds out what you used one of her wedding presents for..... (if you bump the side of the hot pot with the bait, It'll melt and then burn, so the pot s/b a "junky" one, I bought the one I used a tag/yard sale for a buck) -- Oh yeah "WATCH OUT for the steam, it'll burn yer @$$ !, I wear a barbecue glove and use tongs, METAL skewers, and old braided line for tools... also, don't walk away, the boiling water will "melt" the softer baits....
