Used to pull electrical wire.

Wondering if it would work better than the fishing line I am using lately.

I had never heard that term, so I did look it up Tony and Suzanne Marriott, Associate Brokers, and it's not actually a 'tape', but a 'wire' used by electricians.  Very interesting, as I love learning something new every day!!

Though Raymond E. Camp likely has the correct answer, my Fish Tape is what I measure those trophy catches with so that I can have bragging rights.

It's kind of like a mix-tape, but it doesn't smell as good.

Same as a "draw tape"! Does that clear it up?
