Abstract: A method and apparatus for the self-illumination of various objects designed for use in sports, entertainment, safety, and emergency related activities. The objects are caused to self-illuminate by chemiluminescence to facilitate usage of the objects during non-daylight hours or in areas that are otherwise surrounded by darkness. The self-illuminating objects are configured with a hollow channel that forms diametrically opposed openings in a body portion of the self-illuminating objects, the hollow channel being formed to accept fishing line.

The objects are caused to self-illuminate by chemiluminescence to facilitate usage of the objects during non-daylight hours or in areas that are otherwise surrounded by darkness. Chemiluminescence may be activated through injection, acceleration, tactile manipulation, through the process of attaching various portions of the self-illuminating objects together, or through the use of a mechanical activator. Activation is utilized to cause emission of visible light from within one or more cavities of the objects, from exterior portions of the objects, or from various inserts of the objects. Subcutaneous packets are also provided that may be caused to emanate visible light through chemiluminescence.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for self-illuminating fishing lures is provided so as to increase visibility of the fishing lures to predator fish. Self-illumination is accomplished by chemiluminescence through the introduction of an activator solution, such as hydrogen peroxide, into a fluorescer solution. The color emitted by the fishing lure after chemiluminescent activation may be designed by appropriate selection of the fluorescer solution to create color selections across the red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet spectrum of visible light. Hard-body lures may accept either glow cartridges or glow packets that contain the activator and fluorescer solutions. Soft-body lures may accept cartridges, or may be injected with either activator solution or fluorescer solution to activate the chemiluminescent process. Soft-body lures may also contain the fluorescer solution and a vial containing the activator solution.
