Lutefisk rods are one of a kind originals, must like Steve Hubers
signiture series rods. They are hand made in Oslo Mn by Uncle Torwald,
and sold exclusively at Tiegen's Oslo Store, in Vernon Township of Dodge
County, the heart of SE MN's lutefisk country.
Not every fisherman will ever have the chance to hold one of these
beauties in their hand. There are two basic styles - the warm water rod
made for the powerful runs of the Flathead Lutefisk - found in the warm
waters of the South Branch of the South Fork of the Zumbro river. The
warm water rod places an emphasis on the stout sensitivety of custom
cut, tree dried box elder wood rod blanks.
The cool water rod is designed for the leaps and areial artistry of the
wiley King and Coho Lutefisk, found in the head waters of the Root river
drainage. The cool water rod makes use of a blank cut from supple black
willow.
Both rod styles feature custom built bait casters spooled with nearly 7
or 8' of premium sissal baler twine, and are ready to fish, as they come
equipped with 14 gauge electric fence wire hooks, dressed with chicken
feathers died red (the local favorite) or color of your choice for a
slight extra charge.
The rods come w/ a generous warranty period of 7 minutes or 7 casts,
which ever comes first - something even ROFB's own Al can appreciate.
If you'd like one of these rods shipped to you, you can contact Dale
Tiegen at the Oslo Store - 507-365-8926. They run the fearsome price of
$12.95, expensive, but so very worth it.
