Ohio Brush Creek is a picturesque stream located in Adams County, Ohio that offers anglers a secluded fishing experience with diverse aquatic wildlife. This free-flowing limestone stream features numerous pools and riffles throughout its course as it winds through rural southern Ohio before eventually emptying into the Ohio River. Known for its solitude and natural beauty, Ohio Brush Creek remains largely unhindered by development, maintaining much of the same character as when the Shawnee built their lodges along its banks. With over 70 species of fish counted in the system and a robust mussel population, this high-quality stream provides excellent fishing opportunities in a wilderness-like setting.
