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.
