1 piece, unless its a travel rod.
1 piece rods do not lose the sensitivity from the ferrule that you get on a two piece.And it is really aggravating to make a cast and the top half of the rod come lose and slide down the line. Most of your two pice rods are also considerably lesser quality and I have had many split right at the ferrule. I quit useing them over 10 years ago. and you can buy fairly decent 1 piece rods for just a few dollars more than the best 2 piece rods. |

Your sensitivity is greater with one piece rods.

1 piece will be more sensitive and 2 piece will be easier to transport. I've got a few of each. I can put plenty of 7' one piece rods in the jeep, but if I'm in the car, I gotta take my 2 piece rods.

Ditto to zooker, unless packing them through the woods, and jungle. Then you gotta go with the 2 piece to break down, and you can carry them much easier.
