Default what are some ways to fish wires through walls?

Hi,
I've got a fish tape and I sometimes use a piece of string with a
fishing weight on the end of it and hook it with a piece of bailing
wire. I'm curious, what are some other ways to fish wires through
walls?


I worked out a little trick to stick cable through a wall, not down
inside. Just drilled small holse, fed a narrow, stiff (but flexible)
plastic tubing through it and then threaded wire through the tubing.
Removed the tubing from inside when the wire was in. with right length
of tubing, you may be able to insert your wire and then guide it to the
point where you have opened the wall?
