Peter and a few disciples went fishing in John 21

They were impressed with the catch compared with the zero catch before.

7 That disciple whom Jesus loved therefore said to Peter, “It is the Lord!”
It was a miracle. John recognized Jesus. John was there.

11 So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, 153 of them. And although there were so many, the net was not torn.
What is the significance of the number 153?

There is no significance except that John was so impressed with the large quantity of the catch that he remembered the actual number.
