I know I screwed up when I removed the trash rack so go ahead an chew my butt for that, ok now that I got that out of the way here is the problem. Water is going over emergency spill way, it is holding up good. Water is about 8 inches above the 8" drain pipe with very little water coming out the other end, maybe 2 gallons per minute. My guess is a turtle shell or ball went down the pipe and lodged at the 90. I can take a rod and stick it all the way down the drain pipe untill it hits the 90 on the water side, my guess is right where the 90 is at is where the blockage is at. Any ideas on what I can do to dislodge this. My next guess is to rent a sewage snake from a rental company but thought someone may have a better idea. As soon as I get it unblocked the trash rack will never come off again. Lesson learned the hard way!!! Thanks

One idea is to use a hook (like a grappling hook) or a flat piece of metal on a rope. Let the rope down the pipe and then from the back side pull the hook through the pipe. Stay away from the pipe in case it dislodges or you will get knocked over by the water surge.
