I undo a lot of tangles as a fly fishing guide. A lot of the knots are my own creation, yet I also untangle a lot snarls that guests create themselves. With tangles, there are no shortcuts. Anytime you pull one end, you'll probably make it worse. Anytime you try and flick the rod to undo the snarl, it'll just make it worse. It's a type of puzzle and definitely a patience builder. I get the most irritated when the knots are my own creation.
But then you catch a fish and it's all better.
