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.

What is a pea trap?

Actually, the pea trap is not designed to catch things you mistakenly drop down the drain. All drains lead to a sewer or septic system. The pea trap is designed to hold a small amount of water to block all those lovely smells from coming back into the house as the drain acts as direct conduit to the funk.
