Clogged drain, no p-trap?

[Stewpadaso]

The drain in my shower is clogged with what im sure is a toy shark, kids... I have tried a drill auger and coat hanger to no avail. Looking at it through the crawl space it seems to not have a trap of any kind. Im attaching a picture for reference, any suggestions will be appreciated. Top pipe is overflow, drain goes straight down from the looks of it.

There should be a p-trap down there out of the picture. Keep looking.

There is not. It goes straight down to the sewer. I should mention that its a slab on grade home and below the pvc section in the picture is the main sewer line in concrete.

If that is the case you have bigger problems than a clogged drain.

You better call a licensed plumber to install a trap and then vent waste line. Sewer gasses can cause health issues such as headaches , nausea among other long term illnesses

When did YOU become a plumbing expert. You DO have a "P" trap and it connects to that pipe in the wall next to the tub drain.

Never said i was an expert, that being said ive worked on this long enough to know there isnt one. The pipe going up is the overflow for the tub, then the drain beneath the tub goes straight down from the looks of it.

Ive never smelt any sewer gases.

This is the setup that ive got. Except for where it says "to trap adapter" it just goes straight down into the main drain.

Show us photos of the connection between the tub drain and main line.

My mistake guys. I found the p trap underneath some sediment.
