In the [[Bible]], fishing is used as a [[metaphor]] for the winning of souls to [[Christ]]. Several of [[Jesus]]' [[disciples]] were fishermen before He called them, promising to make them 'fishers of men'. Fishing and fishing boats feature in several stories from the [[Gospel]]s, such as the miraculous catch (John 21:11) and [[St Peter]] walking on water (Matthew 14:28-31).
