Money. I guess that ties right back in with all the other reasons you listed though. I think most guys like the idea of catching a big fish but they're not willing to commit to it and make the necessary sacrifices(money, fewer fish, the time it takes to learn to fish these baits, ect.) to do it. These are all reasons that I took my time getting into it. In fact I still haven't made a full commitment to it but I've got atleast one of these baits tied on at all times and fish them the majority of my time on the water.
