Do you love big bluegill?

I was wanting to thin out the 'gills some in this pond, so we kept the smaller ones we caught today. We released fifteen or twenty that were bigger than these - probably the biggest we landed was still an ounce or two under a pound though. I did lose one large fish that I got just enough of a glimpse of to confirm it was a bluegill, when it made its second drag-taking run and the hook pulled out - I would guess that fish went somewhere between 20 and 24 ounces, but that's just a guess. It was sizably bigger than any of the ones we caught.
