Pretty common knowledge that big fish eat smaller fish. Walleyes eat their own probably more so than muskies. My favorite walleye cranks are walleye patterns.

Musky and Northerns will eat ANYTHING they can fit in their mouth.

There was a study done on this just recently in MN & Wisconsin. Around 1,092 musky's were sampled around the state.....only 5 walleyes had been found in them! Their main forage depended on what the lake had to offer, and mostly had either perch or sunfish or white fish/sucker in their bellies.
