That's the pedestal it's a perforated disk with a 3/4" lip bent down to keep it off the bottom of the frier.On the opposite side of the disk is a bent hoop/loop about 10-12" in length & 1/4" dia.(some other models have a long eye hook),you slide the bird on it neck first so the legs are up to the tip of the loop then you tie the legs to it with cotton string.

Live bait sharp hooks and timing is all you need
