Location: 31 | I've got a fair amount of experience with this and completely understand the frustration when it should pull through but doesn't, good advise on the longer cables and Steve's suggestion is spot on… basically it's much easier if you can find a midway access point.
Having that existing wire is a big plus and you shouldn't need a fish tape unless there's something really weird going on. I recommend tight wrapping another heavy-duty wire onto it first and see if you can get it to pull all the way threw before attaching the Ethernet cable (with another pull wire attached). When you're pulling the wire it's important to keep the end of the ethernet cable protected and not put any pressure on it, rather just on the wire itself.
I've had some issues trying to get the extra size of the ethernet or especially transducer ends to pull through, and have had to file down the collar some to get them threw tight spots more than once. Just keep working it back and forth, one direction might work better than the other so try both directions with two people before giving up.
