Bay Lake Charters

At Bay Lake Charters, we believe that the key to a successful and enjoyable charter fishing experience is our crew. Our team, led by Captain Adam, is dedicated to providing you with the best opportunity to catch fish and create lasting memories on Lake Michigan. We are a family-run business that takes pride in creating a friendly and welcoming atmosphere for our guests, many of whom return year after year and have become like family to us.

Captain Adam Cochart, a local of Door County, grew up between the Bay of Green Bay and Lake Michigan. His passion for fishing was ignited at a young age and has only grown stronger with over two decades of experience fishing in the area. He is well respected among the charter fishing community and has a vast network of captains who work together to ensure successful fishing trips. Captain Adam is committed to providing an enthusiastic and hardworking crew who loves to put people on fish. His wife, Rachael, has been behind his dream since the day they met, and they now have three children (Quinn, Kylah, and Cash) who share their love for fishing.
