hi james ,
if you play allot of blues then why use tabs to tell you what you need to play ?
Just learn the 5 pentatonic blues scales learn to link them together allong the fretboard and you can find out what players play in just a little bit of time.
And ask yourself what you gonna do at a jamsession if you learned everything from tabs :)
I find tabs handy for chet atkins fingerstyle pickings cause you can forget these pickings so now and then andlook back to the self written tabs if u need to.
but not for normal blues songs.
so its up to you if u want to stay with tabs or do it the hard way and really learn to understand the neck and can play allot of things.
Hope it helped greets !

If you know all this stuff then its no problem to check out a tab and see what he plays.
But I think otis rush tabs are hard to get.
But the second question is fo you want to copy his music 100%?
maybe you should try and make up you own phrasing at the point where its not clear :)

Seriously, I merely Googled Otis Rush tab and came up with these links. Is there something wrong with these or did you merely wonder if anyone knew if they were accurate TABs??
