1 It came to passe, that when ye people preassed vpon hym, to heare the worde of God, he stoode by the lake of Genezareth, 2 And sawe two shippes stande by the lakes syde: But the fisshermen were gone out of them, and were wasshyng their nettes. 3 And he entred into one of the shippes, which pertayned to Simon, and prayed hym that he woulde thrust out, a litle from the lande: And he sate downe, and taught the people out of the shippe. 4 When he had left speakyng, he sayde vnto Simon: Launche out into the deepe, and let slip your nettes, to make a draught. 5 And Simon aunswered, and sayde vnto hym: Maister, we haue laboured all nyght, and haue taken nothyng: Neuerthelesse, at thy commaundement I wyll loose foorth the nette. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fisshes: But their nette brake. 7 And they beckened vnto their felowes, which were in the other shippe, that they shoulde come, and helpe them. And they came, and fylled both the shippes, that they suncke agayne. 8 When Simon Peter sawe this, he fell downe at Iesus knees, saying: Lorde, go from me, for I am a sinfull man. 9 For he was vtterly astonyed, and all that were with hym, at the draught of fisshes, which they had taken. 10 And so was also Iames and Iohn the sonnes of Zebedee, whiche were parteners with Simon. And Iesus sayde vnto Simon: Feare not, from hencefoorth thou shalt catch men.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Now when he had left speaking,.... Teaching the people, and preaching the word of God unto them out of the ship, as they stood on the shore before him.
He said unto Simon, launch out into the deep; he spoke to Simon Peter, being the master of the vessel, to thrust it out, or put it off further into deep water, more convenient for fishing;
and let down your nets for a draught; of fishes: his meaning is, that he would give orders to his servants, to put out the vessel to sea, to take their nets and cast them into the sea, in order to take and draw up a quantity of fish, which was their business.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Launch, out - Go out with your vessels.
Into the deep - Into the sea; at a distance from the shore.
For a draught - A draught of fish; or let down your nets for the “taking” of fish.
