Do you love big bluegill?

Wrote this six days ago (Thursday),fishing a lake for the 1st time :
"Smallies outfoxed me today .3 escaped off the Rapala ,two blew up on a Black Baby Torpedo , landed only one 12.5 " that took a Gold /Black back Rapala." Today same lake :Caught two 12" Smallies ,one blew up on a Pop R had him on for a second . Effective Lures ,two outings: Pop R, Bomber Crank, * Floating Rapala ,hooked the most (4) , Black. Baby Torpedo raised two fish .Floating a crawler was frustrating ,only very tiny Gills , was hoping for a variety of Panfish including Rock Bass which I believe I saw .2 outings fishing same spots: 3 Fish landed (Rapala, Bomber Crankbait ,Pop R ) three lost fish on Rapala, 3 fish raised on topwater baits .
