What Do Muskie Eat? (Preferred Prey and Baits)
Juveline musky mainly feed on minnows and smaller shad, while adult musky primarily eat both shads, suckers, and ciscoes. They do, however, not shy away from bigger prey, such as walleye or pike, and manage to devour fish that are roughly half their own body size.
