Favorite fishing-related Bible passage?

[Padre]

I'm wondering what folks' favorite Bible quote about fish or fishing might be. There are a bunch of them - more than 70, in one form or another. This is not about particular religious views or the like, just asking about favorite quotes.

I'll start with 2 - one OT and one NT:

"There is that Leviathan, which Thou hast made for the sport of it" Psalm 104:27

"Simon Peter said to them, 'I am going fishing.' They said to him, 'We will go with you.'" John 21:3

Since I fish some pretty fun rivers ....

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you."
Isaiah 43:2

I don't know which fishing-related verse is my favorite, BUT, I recall years ago when my now teenage son seemed to be pondering some deep thought and then told me "There's lots of Bible verses about fishing, but it doesn't say anything about mowing the lawn..."

My vote ...

John 21:3
Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.

Sounds like a typical fishing trip to me...

This is probably my favorite though...

Genesis 1:20-22
20 And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds[g] fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.” 21 So God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”

A song from my Sunday School Days:
"I will make you fishers of men, fishers of men, fishers of men.
I will make you fishers of men if you follow me."
Can't forget that one!
