That sounds like my greenlee FISH STIX.

they are in the cable fishing family of tools but unlike a fish tape
you can PUSH it over and through open areas.

Basically its 4' lengths of fishing rod with threaded ends and a hook
or basket at the end that will easily let you push a cable out up to
24'

they save HOURS working up in drop ceilings
