Catch the Excitement with Striper Express Guide Service

Since 1983, Striper Express Guide Service has been a leader on the waters of Lake Texoma, known worldwide as the “Striper Capital of the World.” Owned by Bill Carey and his son Chris, our outfit is one of the few on the lake that specializes exclusively in artificial lure fishing. We believe there is nothing quite like the adrenaline of a vicious topwater strike or the fight of a big striper on a lure.

Operating out of Mill Creek Resort & Marina in Pottsboro, Texas, we provide a fleet of boats and a team of professional, insured guides ready to handle everything from private family outings to large corporate events of up to 60 people. Our trips are fully inclusive, meaning we provide all the rods, reels, and specialized lures you’ll need. At the end of the day, we take care of the fish cleaning and filleting so your catch is ready for the pan.

With over 40 years of experience, we focus on making the lake’s self-sustaining striper population accessible to everyone, from novice kids to seasoned tournament anglers. Whether you’re looking for a “daycation” or a full overnight package with cabin lodging and catered meals, the Carey family is dedicated to a high-success, high-energy adventure on the water.


Would you like me to help you draft an “Artificial Lure vs. Bait” guide to help your clients understand why the lure experience is so unique?

Great outing for our company! Everyone had an amazing time. The boats were spotless, and all the equipment was clearly well taken care of. Our captain was informative, helpful, and an overall great host. He never settled for spots without fish — he kept moving and doing everything he could to put us where the fish were. Such a great experience and an awesome team-bonding day. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. 10 out of 10!

Striper Express was recommend to us. Mark was our guide and we could not have asked for a better experience. Every person on our boat caught a fish. Mark’s knowledge of the water was vast and his commentary kept us all in a frequent state of giggles. We will absolutely be back and will request Mark as our guide again. 10/10 experience. I absolutely love that this is a family business. A big thank you from the Thornton’s! Thank you again for a great time & experience.

Little Dave guided our family on a striper tour in the middle of summer and we still bagged 40 fish! He's a super awesome guide, knowledgeable, funny and a great angler. We had a blast and he even helped the boys snag a sand bass and few catfish for fun at the dock while cleaning our fish. Highly recommend these guys, great memories!
