Trout Run creek downstream of Bucksnort Dam is good.
Bucksnort Dam, Trout Run Creek
So is Hay Creek downstream of the 325th bridge.
HOWEVER both of these do not allow bait. Pine would be a good choice. Same with Rush next door. Whitewater are great options. Looking for Brookies, try Beaver Creek where it joins main branch of WW. Plenty of options.
So the maps are color coated. The easement sections are marked in gray. Easy huh? Special regs are colored in green or pink (so they stand out) I believe.

So if you are just starting out I’d stick to easement sections. Otherwise if the land is posted I suggest asking landowner permission (best to do ahead of time). Personally I like to do this ahead of time. Look up GIS maps for the county. Zoom in. ID landowner. Then search web for phone number. Call ahead or stop by (but not day of fishing trip). MAJORITY of time landowners love it when people ask. They may post no trespassing to keep out the masses, keep litter down. Keep in mind some are preparing to hunt on their land and may not welcome new requests this time of year however.
Good luck! I hope I was of some help to you. Let us know how you do OK?
Tight lines,
