Didn't fish this hole long and did not catch anything. Makes me think they were catfish. Pretty good shadows though.

Nice
Run 2d over them next time. Might give you better idea of size and hardness. Catfish will usually send a stronger return.
8xd or A-Rig and find out
I did all the suggestions above, but probably did not spend enough time fishing as I had located a wad of fish at the other end of the lake (pre-fishing for a tournament). I enlarged the SideScan to highlight most of the fish with a "brighter" spot one one end of the fish. I believe these are catfish mixed in with some Kentucky bass. I will be back to check these fish out more thoroughly.

Is that a small weed bed they're hanging on?

Your unit settings are set up nice. Good clarity. Good luck
I've been seeing a lot of gar stacked up like that on rayburn. Thousands in one small area but they will come up to the surface so you know what it is. That looks like a brush pile that was in front of that dock. It does look like bass around that but it also looks like some big cats too
what unit are you using
This is all gar and not even the big concentration of them.

When I saw the discussion about Gar, it reminded me of this pic i took on my home lake a few weeks ago. They turned out to be Gar.

I didnt know they schooled like that
I can't say with certainty that they are all gar, but I did observe surfacing activity like gar. I spent about an hour trying Spoons, drop shot etc. trying to catch one but could not get bit. A buddy came along that was fishing for Walleye with jig/night crawlers. He caught 3 Huge Gar (at least 36 inches) in short order.

I caught them on an a rig a few years ago on the river
I've seen massive schools cruising the surface on Cayuga Lake upstate NY in the summer. strange
