Do you love big bluegill?

What are your favorite hopper/dropper patterns for late summer (HOT) bluegill ?
Do you use a loop or tie tight to the tippet?

DAVID;; I USE A POPPER N DROPPER TECH.  I TIE ON A DROPPER; ABOUT 24 INCHES BEHIND A GOOD POPPER;; IT MIGHT BE A LEGION BREAM KILLER OR;; SOME THING ; DICK TABBERT; OR ALLEN MORGAN GAVE ME..  WAY TO MANY TO MENTION; ( AND THATS IF I COULD REMEMBER ALL OF TH ENAMES GIVEN TO THEM ; LOL )  BUT; I USE A TIGHT KNOT TO THE DROPPER;; AND A LOT OF TIMES; I CATCH TWO AT A TIME !!

my favorite popper/dropper pattern is a purple cowbug in size 10 or 8 and a black gnat or the black laced mcginty as a dropper...........
