How do I start fishing?

I've seen two piece rods come apart when people cast, although not so much with spinning as with closed-face and baitcasting reels.

But that's nothing compared with the trouble of fitting a six or seven-foot rod in a compact car. One-piece rods work a little better, all things being equal, but I much prefer my two piece rods. Just jam 'em together really well and they should stay together all day. A little water on the insert tip sometimes helps if they feel loose.
