Default cable tv line inside wall

is there a new tool out there that is easy to use to fish a cable tv
line down inside a bedroom wall? ( so i can find it as it reaches the
hole i made for it to come out at?)

a web link would be great!

thanks for any help




My father with 40+ years experience with the phone company used a clothes
hanger, string and weight to fish wires through walls. For weights, he
often used nuts.

Drop the weighted string from above and use the clothes hanger from below
to "hook" the string and pull it through. Works like a charm, and the
price is right.
