I'd say that finding the line thats binding it and plucking it is much faster. Took him ten times on that last one and it still didnt come out.

I've lost a lot of precious fishing hours plucking birds nests apart. Any simple technique that gets me fishing again fast is certainly worth trying. Pluck if you must but my next nest I'm going to try this technique first.

This is much much faster than plucking out a nest but like someone brought up sometimes it does not work and plucking has to be done.

Wow, pretty simple but effective way of cutting your de-tangle time in half. Why didn't I think of this?
