The Net River is a 24.5-mile-long (39.4 km)[1] tributary of the South Fork Nemadji River in Pine and Carlton counties, Minnesota, United States.[2] Via the Nemadji River, it flows to Lake Superior at Superior, Wisconsin.
"Net River" is probably an English translation of the Ojibwe-language name.[3]
