I started making these lures for pike a couple years ago and I really dont fish with anything else. I make them in all different sizes and colors, but my question is do you think the bigger ones are big enough to entice a muskie. I have caught large pike on these things, and hundreds of decent sized ones. Let me know, thanks.

Yes, you can catch muskies with them. (Jim tenHaaf catches them with trout spinners! {wink})
At certain times of the year, they may be just the thing. At other times, larger baits will be more productive.
My "top" lures would probably include (in no order)
1. Musky Innovations Bulldawgs or Twin fin
2. Rapala Super Shad Rap
3. Muskie Mania 8"-10" Jake
4. Large bucktails
5. Suick Musky Thriller 8"-10"
You could do worse than getting some of those.

Those look like they'll entice a musky just fine, especially at certian times of the year. The bigger concern I would think is the quality of the components the baits are made out of. The wire the bait is made of, the split rings, and hooks all need to be as strong as can be because a musky can do things to a bait most pike couldn't dream of. I'm not saying these baits don't as its hard to tell from the photos, but that would be my biggest concern.
