First, that's a 'P' trap (because of it's shape, - it doesn't trap peas ). To unclog it you undo both of the large nuts you will see on each side of the lower bend. Have a small bucket or container handy to put under it to catch overflow. Easiest to do it with a medium pipe wrench, an auto oil filter wrench or large 'channel lock' pliers.
