PCT No. PCT/AU96/00589 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 7, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 7, 1998 PCT Filed Sep. 18, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/18382 PCT Pub. Date May 22, 1997A spear head assembly (10) comprises a main body portion (14) with axially opposite first and second ends (16 and 18) respectively. The first end (16) is adapted for threaded connection with a down hole tool (12). The tool, which does not form part of the invention, is provided with an internal fluid flow path (13). Passage (20) is formed in the main body portion (14) and extends between first and second spaced apart openings O1 and O2 which are coincident with the first end and the second end (16 and 18) respectively of the main body portion (14). Spear point (22) is coupled to the main body portion (14) at, and extends from, the second end (18). In use, when the spear head assembly (10) is coupled to tool (12), to facilitate connection of the tool to a wireline and overshot via the spear point (22), the passage (20) is in fluid communication with the path (13). Therefore, fluid such as drilling mud can go through the path (13) in a substantially unimpeded manner.
