ABSTRACT:
An electrician's fish tape and reel therefore has an annular outer race and an annular hub rotatably mounted within the inside diameter of the race, Together the race and hub define a fish tape receiving chamber. A fish tape in the chamber is coiled on the hub with its inner end anchored to the hub. Springs bias the fish tape away from the race to prevent it from uncoiling against the race, The outer end of the tape extends out of the reel through a fixed opening in the outer race. A handle fixed to the race and a knob pivotably mounted on the hub permit a user to rotate the hub and thereby wind the fish tape into or out of the reel.
