2 Shea Charters

Best part of our vacation. Capt. TJ and first mate Chris were fantastic. I brought my wife two of my boys 9 and 11 and my father in law. Chris was great with the kids. We caught so many fish. The Capt even took some time for me and my father in law and drifted a wreck to hook up on some Amberjack. Will definitely book another charter when we visit Clearwater again.

Best day on the water!
This team really understands customer service from the first phone call to cleaning the incredible amount of fish we caught. They were professional and courteous. Mainly they made it a fun day.
Captain Brian and Mark made our trip!
We will be back!

We use 2 Shea often when we have clients in town and they always give us a 5 star treatment. All of the captains are very knowledgeable and make the trip a ton of fun. Memorable experience had by all and we will definitely be returning. Thanks Captain TJ for an awesome day on the water.

Best fishing charter ever, and I’ve been on many. I caught so many fish… I lost count! Professional team (Capt. TJ and First Mate, Mark)… They were right there alongside each one of us on the charter — instructing, helping, guiding and even providing history and trivia that only a seasoned crew could do. I’d recommend 2 Shea to anyone, and will definitely book again with them!

Capt. TJ and Mark are awesome!!! We booked one of their boats for the day. They knew where to go to get the best fish and have the most fun. They created an experience that both experienced fisherman and new comers alike can enjoy. Their boats are kept in tip top shape and they take care of everything. I plan to use them again and would recommend them to anyone and everyone. Thanks guys.

Hands down the best place to get in some fantastic diving, spearfishing, and fishing!!! Great captains and crew. BEST in Clearwater!!!

I’m always a skeptic when I see a majority of five-​star reviews on a service, thinking that they are paid spokespeople for the company. I can tell you from experience that is not the case — these ratings are legitimate.
I called Capt. TJ at the last minute the day before wanting to go out on a 4-​person fishing charter. They were booked the following morning but he scheduled us for the afternoon instead. We had one person in our party who is prone to sea-​sickness and TJ was very good about communicating the conditions that morning, even texting me pictures from the boat while out. When we showed up he gave us a forecast and said that it might be a bit choppy but that it should lay down later. He gave us the option of coming back the following day or going out as scheduled. We chose to go out. The care TJ showed in accommodating our party was much appreciated.
Leon and Tito took us out. We had two novice fishers with us and Leon and Tito talked to us on the way out and took the time to teach the novices the correct way to fish for the targeted species. We spent adequate time on each spot while the bite was on, then moved on as expected. One spot started yielding groupers and the catches were increasing in size (one 19″ red grouper was landed and had to be put back), and the bite was definitely on. Unfortunately for us, just about that time some porpoises showed up and the fishing was done. Fortunately we did get some up close viewing as they circled around us. They knew fish were there as well! We ended up bringing in some black sea bass and quite a few large grunts. No keeper groupers but we each caught a few and knew there were more out there.
Leon and Tito were very nice and talked to us the whole time we were out, never making it feel like they were watching the clock to come back in even though this was their second charter of the day. We really appreciated the instruction, the conversation, and the camaraderie they showed us that day.
TJ, Leon, and Tito are all great guys. After this experience I know I will book with them again. I’ve been on a number of other fishing trips in Florida and other states — charter and «party-​boat». Without a doubt this is the most enjoyable fishing trip I’ve taken. I highly recommend 2 Shea Charters if you are looking for a quality, customer-​focused organization, and an enjoyable fishing experience.

For my first open water dive, I am so glad I was on the 2 Shea with our dive master Leon Watts. I would’ve been nervous had I been part of a large group on a large boat, but Leon doesn’t roll that way and the 2 Shea is not set up to herd big groups of divers. It is perfect for any diver looking for a more personal experience with a group of people who know the waters like the back of their hand. 2 Shea wastes no time getting to a spot and getting you underwater. Now that I am certified, I am looking forward to many more trips with 2 Shea and Leon Watts.

Went out with 2 Shea spearfishing last weekend for the first time. Very impressed with their operation. The captain and dive master were knowledgeable and competent. They ran a safe boat and put us on some fish. They also did a great job with the less-​experienced divers and spear-​fishermen on board. Glad to see the willingness to teach and mentor. Looking forward to the next trip. Well done guys!

Just an all around great guy. This is the type of guy you want taking you out fishing. We just are our catch from yesterday and it was great. Good fishing, good times and good waters. The boat rides smooth and the set up gets it done so you’re pulling in fish. Captain TJ would be my first call in Clearwater to fish.

I’ve been fishing and diving with TJ from 2 Shea Charters for a few years now and I’m so glad I found them. I’ve been on those «cattle boats» before, and this is nothing like that. This is a personalized, professional charter experience. TJ puts you on the fish. 2 Shea is the cleanest, most reputable and honest charter company I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with, period.
