Water was slow to drain down the sink after my camping trip. Sink was 3/4 full on my way home. After trying to suck the water from the bottom of the drain with a dry/wet vac,

No avail

using hose pressure, I tried to unclog the sink

No avail

I used my compressor to send hi-pressure air down the sink hole

No avail

Finally, I used my plunger to free it up - that helped but not fully

My attempts to use a coat hanger as a makeshift snake didn't help either, as there seems to be a small strainer in the sink drain to stop this attempt.

Am I missing something here? Tried to search the archives to no avail.
