If you have around 3/4" sticking out, you can take a leather thong, old boot laces work fine. Put a knot in one end. Make as many half hitches as you can on the rod end, and pull away. Use enough half hitches, and you can pull the very devil out of his hole.

that's a great trick, rick!  and it works!!
