There is also a Brule River in Minnesota. The Bois Brule River in Douglas County, Wisconsin, is also known as the Brule River.
Brule River is a river in the U.S. states of Michigan and Wisconsin, and nearly the entire course forms a portion of the boundary between the two states.
The Brule begins at Brule Lake, just inside the Michigan border, at Menominee River.
. It winds east and southeast until joining with the Michigamme River at to form theThe Brule is popular for canoeing, spanning about 45 miles with several stop/start points somewhat evenly spread out. The Brule's flow is much more reliable that many other surrounding rivers due to its "untouched" quality. There is only one dam on the river that affects the water level, but that is located near the end of the Brule.
Much of the land on both sides of the river are 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.
