Question 1 Piece Rods vs. 2 Piece Rods

Which do you prefer? With many getting rods built during the winter I was just curious how many prefer one to the other. I have 5 1 piece custom rods and I prefer them to the 2 piece rods. I used to hate when the 2 piece rods would loosen during a long session of casting, and I tried all the tricks...parafin wax, turning the rod as you insert it into the ferrel. Nothing worked! Sure it stinks when I can't break them down and store them safely inside my Jeep, but the tradeoff is worth it. Nothing I hated more than having to keep checking my 2 piece rod to see if it was loose or misaligned. I think the 1 piece feels alot stronger with a fish on also....maybe its just me. Thoughts?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
