When I had the inline feeder I made a "hook" out of a clothes hanger and got them out that way.

I would also avoid removing tabs as that presents problems with handling and storage. I think that it's much better to plan ahead so that the tabs are fully consumed by the time you would want the feeder to be empty.
One more advice - when you take the pucks out, store them safely. I left mine on the equipment pad and the dog got a hold of them and moved them to a different part of the yard. He's fine, but I'm glad he didn't chew on them!
