You most likely went right through the blockage (grease/sludge). You need to run it back and forth in a scrubbing motion within the first several feet or so. Put some bends in the end of your cable so it looks like this: VVVVV
If you don't want to keep messin' around with the trap, fill the sink with water, and have someone watch or listen as you cable from the roof vent.
