How do I remove the bathtub drain stopper?

I need to unclog my bathtub drain, but the drain stopper won’t come out. I have tried unscrewing it both left and right, partial turning and pulling it out, and trying to wiggle it free, nothing works.
The drain stopper is made out of metal and seems to have a little metal rod going down with a rounded end that is under a hole to small to pull it out from. The hole is in the centre of some type of criss cross thing.

Are you talking about a stopper or the actual drain grate? It sounds like you have a stopper that you turn to get it to plug the drain, then lift and turn to let the water drain. If you have one of those, the stopper has to be closed (i.e. able to hold water) to remove it. Once it’s closed, take some pliers and turn it counter-clockwise – like you would remove a screw. But don’t pull up on it until it’s screwed out all the way.
If that’s not what you have, then I just wasted your time. Sorry.
