Musky and healthy populations of other gamefish in the same waters is the norm in most places in my experience, and I've fished many great multi-specie fisheries (LOW, Mille Lacs, Wissota, and more) that would seem to prove the theory. Even on smaller waters, healthy populations big bass and walleye are found. Yes, they do feed on other gamefish, but that is not their preferred diet. The gentleman who mentioned Mille Lacs can likely testify to a fabulous smallmouth population existing alongside Musky to 60" and more.
