Matthew 4:18 - And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. [NKJV]
If Matthew is disclosing historical information then it would seem Peter was a fisherman. However, it may be that Peter's job is allegorical because, in his apastolic role, he was a 'fisher of men'.
