Default Bass as bait/forage?

There is a small lake near my home I fish alot. It has tons of small
Largemouth bass (8 to 14 inches). It also has some nice size tiger musky.

I
think the Fish commission stocked the Tiger Musky to controll the bass and
sunfish population. Do Tiger Muskies eat small bass? If so, would a bass
colored lure be effective on Musky? Just wondering these weird things

while
its snowing (again). Maybe someday it will actually be good weather for
fishing, but I'm not counting on it.


Muskies will eat small bass, heck, muskies will eat larger bass too if they
can fit them in their mouth!

Bass colored lures can be very effective on muskies. Secret Weapon now
makes a spinnerbait in "Baby Bass" color that I'm thinking will be very
effective on toothy critters, especially in clearer water lakes.
