Live bait to bass fish with. Right or Wrong?

I've heard about that method in relation to muskies. In that story they
called the method "planking".

My Grandpa told stories of catching VERY big native Redside Trout on
the Deschutes river by hooking mice through the scruff of their necks
and putting them on pieces of wood. He said he'd let them drift down
into an eddy, and then tug them of the wood so they'd start swimming
for the shore. Hard to get a more natural action than that
