The Brule River is a 52.3-mile-long (84.2 km) river in the U.S. states of Michigan and Wisconsin. Nearly, almost all of the course forms a portion of the boundary between the two states.
The Brule begins at Brule Lake, just inside the Michigan border. It winds east and southeast until joining with the Michigamme River to form the Menominee River and on into Lake Michigan.
The Brule River is stocked with Brook and Brown trout.
Much of the land on both sides of the river is publicly owned with several good campsites available. Fishing is exceptional, with brook and brown trout in the upper areas and tributaries. Smallmouth bass and northern pike can be found in abundance in the lower sections.
