# Running Cable

I’ve been running a lot of cable lately, and until today had never thought about zip tying a [flashlight](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0078OZROA/) to the end of my [fish tape](https://www.grainger.com/product/4VDG5). It made figuring out exactly where the tape was under the house much easier!

I am still learning learning the best way to pull cable. I’m just starting to figure out how to use my new [5′ long drill bit](https://www.lowes.com/pd/Southwire-4-Piece-3-4-in-Standard-High-Speed-Steel-Twist-Drill-Bit/1000056669) 😐
