The glue idea, and heating a clothe's hanger to try and poker through the bottle are the best ideas.

I would try the glue first since that would obviously take the least effort.

If neither of those work, you have to take the pipe apart before it gets jammed down any farther. GL and please provide an update.

If by best you mean most convoluted and designed to simulate a MacGyver episode, then yes.

Otherwise, just take the trap off and pull the bottle out already. One tool, a few minutes, done.

I agree, taking the trap off makes the absolute most sense. But he was asking for ways to get it out without taking the trap off, thus my suggestions.

So what did you end up doing? Were you successful in retrieving the bottle from the drain?
