It is all about lures, lines, rods and different techniques.

Personally I don't have a problem with a bait ban. Some others on here may not agree.
For me, I'm mostly fly fishing in open water times anyways and more often with my own tied inventions. During ice fishing I do use bait to catch burbot sometimes but that is about it. I like the idea of fooling the fish and the challenge of trying to get it right.
One other good side effect would be a huge reduction in bait bags and containers
