The Green River is a 384-mile-long (618 km) tributary of the Ohio River that rises in Lincoln County in south central Kentucky.
Tributaries of the Green River include the Barren River, the Nolin River, the Pond River and the Rough River.
The river was named after Nathanael Greene, a general of the American Revolutionary War.
This area is popular for largemouth bass, spotted bass, walleye, sauger, muskellunge, crappie and bluegill fishing. Boaters and anglers should use caution when boating or fishing above and below lock and dam structures.
