Any Fishing on the Dragon?

There is fishing done at the campground at the base of the dam... in 2009, they were reeling in trout from the shore with canned corn as bait.
I've got my 10-day NC fishing license w/ the trout addition and plan to spend some time fishing down there.
You can get a fishing license here: https://www.ncalvin.org/Alvin/defaul...&trid=41&vid=0
Regulations here: Licenses/Permits/Registration/Titling
My very simple take on it: Limit of 7 trout per day - 7 inches or longer.
The visitor license is a 10-day window. I got the 10-day inland fishing license ($10) + the public water trout addition (+$10). I'm not 100% sure if the second part is necessary, but I tend to err on the side of 'safe' vs. 'sorry'. With a public fishing spot down the road, it may be 'public water'.

From the pic below, you can see that the campground is right down on the water. If the water level is low, I think that there is a pier and boat ramp on the campground road.
I have little to no fishing experience, but a friend on my local MINI board recommended aa smallish hook w/ a salmon egg and a split-shot weight anout 10 inches up from the hook. I got some 'power bait' salmon eggs (fake bait), leaders, hooks, shot and swivels... cant wait to try it out. He mentioned that trout will kiss the bait a few times and that you have to be patient for them to really take the bait before setting the hook.
