Jameson Little Buddy Fish Tape | 3/16" Fiberglass Rod | 150'–300' Conduit
Little Buddy 3/16" Fiberglass Fish Tape
Built for short conduit runs and tight spaces, the Jameson Little Buddy 3/16" Fish Tape is a lightweight, portable unit designed for controlled pushing and pulling. Trusted by telecom, electrical, and utility contractors, it is commonly used for inside and outside conduit drops, home runs from hand-hole boxes to buildings, and light pole or control wiring.
The compact reel design allows for easy transport and setup, while the controlled pay-out system helps reduce backlash and improve handling in tight or congested conduit paths. Ideal for conduit fish tape applications where maneuverability and control matter most.
