As Numbscull said....its a sense of accomplishment many of us look for! I know I could do better if I fished live eels or other forms of bait, but that just does not give me the thrill that catching a nice fish on a wooden plug made with my own hands does! To create that plug and to work it in such a way that it tempts that beautiful fish to explode on it in a frenzied attack is just what I love to do......its the best part of fishing for me as far as I am concerned along with the camraderie of fishing with other sick souls like myself and just plain being out there on the water!
Choose your weapon and have at it!
