Rulings (2)
- Take the Bait doesn't give the opponent whose turn it is an additional main phase. They will move directly from the end of combat step of one combat phase to the beginning of combat step of the next one.
- Untapping and goading the attacking creatures won't remove them from combat, even if they're attacking you.
