re: It feels great to find a missing pocket knife

One day last year, my dad dropped by, I took him out in the boat and we caught 50 trout in one spot. As I was filleting our catch, I dropped my best filet knife from the fish cleaning station into the water. Finished up with another knife.
As we pulled up crab traps to stuff them with trout heads, the one by the filet station had my knife in it.
My dad told me to go buy a lottery ticket because that must have been my lucky day.
I didn't: still not rich.
