Sometimes the answer is soo obvious that you are embarrassed when you figure it out.

I bought this butane torch the other day. Its awesome for fixing soft swimbaits. I can fix 10 baits now in the time it took me to fix one. No more burning your hand over the stove, no more waiting forever for a lighter to heat the nail. Also, the torch doesnt turn your bait black, and it heats a nail in like 5 seconds. The nail stays much hotter much longer so you have lots of time to take your time and make a perfect fix.
