There are numerous cons when it comes to a two piece and an equal number of pros when looking at a one piece. In my mind anyway, the only reason for a 2 piece rod is if you absolutely need it to pack smaller to be transported, either to the beach (if your drive a small electric car, lol) or if you plan on flying to fish out of state.

I didn't own a single 2 piece, but did buy a couple cheeper 2 piece Shimano rods to bring with me to the Keys recently. Again, that would be the only reason for me to own one.

Tight lines.
