I find the very best way to do break off a tough snag, is to put on a pair of gloves, and pull the line up by hand. (wrap it around your hands like you're leadering a marlin)
If you do it bare handed you risk cutting your hand open... I still do it, but I make sure I wrap it around my hand several times.
Whatever you do, don't just keep pulling on it "bendo" style... otherwise you might need someone to re wrap your guides to accommodate for the segment you'll snap off. haha Especially if you are using a fly rod... those Sage and G Loomis rods aint cheap!
