Are you using CUA mode by any chance?  If this is the case, when you highlight and hit C-c you are copying the region.
Try C-S-c  ^ (same as C-C ^) (which using the non-CUA key binding)
And should sort just find for you.
The use of shift to override CUA bindings is very helpful, works for C-v & C-x too.
