Fishing the North Jetty at Port Aransas

It was sheephead after sheephead but they were all small so we grabbed our gear and headed further out onto the North Jetty,  The surf was almost four feet and it sloshed across the cement forcing us onto the rocks.
Stopping we fished for a while but the fish were still small so we headed further out to the remains of the shark shack. The sheephead weren't any bigger so I cast both poles out on the gulf side. Shortly the big pole bent over with a big fish on a run.
Fighting the fish I noticed that the other pole also doubled over and so I called Roy to come over with the net. We had two fish on and they were both nice fish. Roy fought his in first and it was a  nice gaff top catfish. Handing Roy the other pole I let him fight the big fish but too soon it eased in and it was a large stingray instead of a big red,
Almost out of bait we headed back, stopping at the sand dune to fish for a bit before the jetty boat came for the noon pickup. We both caught a couple of small sheephead and then I had a large fish on. Losing it I put on a fresh piece of shrimp and immediately  another nineteen inch sheephead took off, but this one ended up in the net.
Here we had worked out way out to the far end of the jetty and the big fish had been close to the dock. Roy had one break off and the jetty boat arrived so we loaded our gear and headed back across the pass to Port Aransas.
We stopped a couple of times as I wanted to show Roy, Conn Harbour and a place across from the Lighthouse trails. It had been a nice time fishing the north jetty, even though we had ended up with just two fish for dinner. Now I wonder where the big reds are? Clear skies
