Welcome to the sport, Chris. You 12/14's should work okay with bluegill. Might check into some surface flies like Dahlberg Divers, Gurgle Pops, Wiggle Bugs, etc., to have some topwater fun with bass. Or Gill Busters for both species. Clousers, too. Please don't look down at your warmwater species, for you just might find them more fun and have even more success than you will up in the mountains for trout. Just for the record, I'm not anti-trout. Just pro-warmwater. You will discover any number of tremendous warmwater flies. Again, welcome to the sport. JGW
