I just finished up a series of performances spinning my innercore on a rock in the middle of a lake in a quarry. The second to last night I dropped it on my big ending throw.

Luckily it got stuck in some reeds and didn't sink, but last night I noticed that one of the ends is somehow filled with water, and I think it's even made the staff slightly off balanced, now my throws are a little wonky. But I can't figure out how to get in there to get it out, I'd rather not unscrew the wick if I don't have to. Any ideas?
