This is what fishermen do. They skillfully cast the net into the water. So let s notice several important dynamics here. You cast the net into water where there s the most likelihood of fish being there. You go to where the need exists, to where you will make the most difference.
Fishermen go to the water where the fish are biting.
And then when Jesus calls them to follow Him the next day, and tells them to cast their nets again right where they are off the shore, though they have a hard time believing it ll work, they do it. And lo and behold, their catch is huge. It s obviously a miracle because the fish haven t been biting in this spot. So Peter throws himself at Jesus feet in awe and worship. Fishermen go to the water where the fish are biting.
