FYI turtles do drown. I do believe the bait will work. Along with anything for a bedding fish. If the fish wont leave the bed it can be caught weather it be a turtle, lizzard, creature bait, craw bait, worm or even car keys used. I caught fish off beds with just a hook and no bait IN THE MOUTH. Get them mad enough they bite! Go by academy or walmart and get some garlic spray in the black can. Dont spray it on your bait until you have a stubborn bass on a bed that dont take the bait. Let her see it a few times and pass it up. Then spray it and hold on tight. But as far as bass eating a turtle because its a turtle? Im not at all saying it can not happen (people find them in bass all the time) but its main forage at that time is bluegill and small intruder fish. I hope the turtles land the people who buy them some hogs. But always remember.... fishing baits catch more fisherman than they do fish.
