Abstract: A fishing lure has a hollow body and a closable end cap which can be snapped open or shut, or screwed on or off in order to insert live bait or cut bait into the hollow body. A variety of inserts receivable in the hollow body instead of live bait or cut bait include a hollow insert having a colored, textured outer surface which resembles live bait. The colored, textured surface of the hollow surface is visible from outside of the hollow body since the hollow body is made of clear plastic material. Other inserts include a noise-making insert which is receivable in the hollow insert and a filler insert which is receivable in the hollow insert instead of the noise-making insert. The hollow body may be made in a variety of shapes and sizes depending on the type of gamefish to be fished. The inserts are likewise variable in size and shape but are substantially of a shape to conform to inner surfaces of the hollow body and end cap.

Abstract: A system for collecting solar energy consists of a target for absorbing solar radiation positioned above a plurality of independently positionable reflectors, each reflector including a base, a concave circular reflecting surface, and means responsive to incident solar radiation for positioning the reflector with respect to the target and the sun such that solar radiation incident upon the reflectors will be directed toward the target. The system can also include means for initiating the positioning of the reflectors only in response to the presence of the sun above a predetermined minimum angle with respect to the horizon.
