Any idea how to retrieve overflow float?

[TCoach]

My overflow float slipped out of my hand and now I can’t reach it. Any ideas on how to get it? It’s in the overflow of my 92 gallon corner, so it’s like 36” deep from front to back.

Also, where can I get a replacement?

Any chance you can plug the hole and fill this chamber with water? I think that should allow the float to float up. Then drain the chamber again. XD
