Jesus, take the fishfinder radar!

Many of the Apostles were fishermen. In those days, they fished at night because the fish couldn’t see the nets before it was too late. But the rough nets would snag on their clothes and ruin them so they often just worked naked.

Although fishermen of the day are sometimes described as poor, actually it was a good way to make feed your family, a middle-class type job.

And Jesus had a good reputation of being able to locate the good fishing spots according to some Gospels. Now, I don’t know if that would disqualify your team if you entered fishing tournaments, but it seems like you would have a big advantage.
