In a small lake (Under 100 acres) with a good trout population, decent perch population, and a great bass and bluegill population, what do you think the muskies would key in on the most. Do you think they would follow the trout?(browns, and rainbows) or would they key in more on the lower perch pop. Thanks

Any bait fish, big or small, but in order probably rainbow trout, then perch, then brown trout

Trout, because they tend to suspend and are easier targets. Nutritionally they are better for the muskies too, though I don't know if they know that.
