You can also stretch fence with a fencing pliers. You need to do it at a corner post or buck post, to use that as your anchor of sorts.
You kinda need three hands that way though.
Where my wire meets the corner post, it wraps around it. I also use a big staple to hold it to the post.
I back the staple out, or even start it over the wire in a different spot on the post. Then unwrap the wire from around the post. Pull it as tight as I can by hand, then grab the wire as close to the post as I can with the inside jaws on the fencing pliers. Then, using the post as a fulcrum and the pliers as the lever of sorts I pull the wire tight.
If you get used to it, you can kinda keep ratcheting the wire throught the pliers to get it as tight as you want. Then pound the staple in to hold the wire so you can let go and rewrap the wire around the post again.
One of those things thats really easy to show, but hard to explain....
