Abstract: A fishing lure comprises a body including a first portion and a second portion relatively movable to the first portion; and the second portion is movable in a direction opposite to the direction of the first portion. The fishing lure body may include a longitudinal axis; and the second portion may be rotatable about the longitudinal axis relative to the first portion. A hook may be provided on the second portion of body. A groove may be provided for guiding the movement of the second portion longitudinal and or transversely relative to the first portion.

Abstract: A downhole separator sub for separating drilling mud into a more dense portion and a less dense portion. The apparatus includes a barrel having a central opening therethrough and a cyclone separator cartridge positioned in the central opening. The barrel is attachable to the drill string and the drill bit. The cyclone separator cartridge includes an upper insert, an intermediate cyclone separator housing and a lower insert. An annular flow passage is defined between the cyclone separator housing and an inner surface of the barrel. The upper insert includes an inlet passage providing communication between an upper portion of the barrel central opening and the annular flow passage. The lower insert includes a cyclone inlet providing communication between the annular flow passage and a cyclone chamber in the cyclone separator housing.

Abstract: A keyseat wiper or reamer for enlarging keyseats which are often formed in drilling bores during well drilling operations. The wiper comprises a generally cylindrical body including a cylindrical middle guard portion which has a greater cross-sectional diameter than the greatest diameter of the cutting elements of the tool, the middle portion being free of any cutting elements. Cutting elements extend in a tapered manner from the middle portion to opposed locations toward the ends of the wiper. Because the middle guard portion does not carry cutting elements and is the largest diameter portion of the keyseat wiper, the keyseat wiper will cut only when the hole through which it is passing is of diameter smaller than that of the middle guard portion or when the well bore has a curve or dogleg.
