Fourth Creek runs through the Old Forge township area — one of several small tributary streams in the Moose River drainage, though records on access points and fish populations are thin. The name suggests it's part of a numbered-creek system (likely feeding into a larger flow or pond complex), a common naming convention in working forest country where settlers and surveyors cataloged water by order rather than character. Without established trail access or stocking data, it's backcountry water — the kind of stream you cross on a bushwhack or find by accident when you're already wet to the knees. If you know where Fourth Creek is, you probably already fish it.
