Also, if you have a Harbor Freight nearby they have some cheapo sets for about $8.Theyre smaller diameter(3/16) but are very flexible.Only problem Ive had is the screw ends pull off if stressed a bit. They also have a 25' fiberglass fish tape for about $6, just the tape no case, but it works just fine.

I also have a set of the 1/4 inch ones but I lost one in a wall. Oops! Jeff Moss Moss Communications Computer Repair-Networking-Cabling MBSWWYPBX, JGAE

It's funky because it has no reeler, just a tube that it wraps into, but my remaining 90' still works :-) This model is end of life
