disentangling

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'untwisting the line before' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'it ends game fishing' is the wordplay.
'game' indicates anagramming the letters (the letters play around).
'fishing' becomes 'angling' ('angle' can be a synonym of 'fish').
'it'+'ends'='itends'
'itends' is an anagram of 'disent'.
'disent'+'angling'='DISENTANGLING'
