Pee Pee Creek, Stream in Pike County, Ohio, US
Pee Pee Creek is a waterway in Pike County that flows through rolling terrain in southern Ohio. It joins the Scioto River near the community of Waverly at an elevation of 168 meters.
The creek got its name from a settler who carved his initials 'P.P.' into a beech tree along its banks in 1785. An attack forced settlers to abandon the area and move away from the region.
The creek is part of Ohio's waterway system, and early settlers took stones from its bed to build chimneys for their log cabins. This practical use of natural resources shaped how people constructed their homes in the region.
The creek is known for its population of muskellunge fish and attracts anglers seeking this species in southern Ohio's waters. The area appeals to fishing enthusiasts who want to target specific fish types in natural settings.
Water from the creek first flows through Pebble Township before joining Crooked Creek. This tributary then becomes part of the larger Scioto River system that crosses the region.
