Almost as fun as using your own

After all of you got me into this addiction I made a few too many plugs so my friends were glad to help test out my initial offerings. Well he takes out one of my spooks with a dressed single hook and on his third cast he lands a 42" tuna. After they let that one go they cast again and two cast later its a 34" one which his son (just back from Iraq) promptly tries to horse too much and looses both fish and plug. He forgot his camera and I didn't even get a picture. Now he is begging for more.
It does feel good to give these out to people who have good luck with them.
I just want to know why others always have better luck with my plugs than I do.
