Sometimes the bass or bigger fish will run bait shad onto the bank trying to get them. I have seen this a few times.

Seen this on Lewisville as well. Usually the shad get trapped in shallow water and high winds wash them ashore.
He is truly a sick individual.

Seen this on Lewisville and Hubbard when it's real windy it usually makes for some easy fishing.

No it's a fish kill and biologists are looking for a cause.

Big question: was this one little stretch of shore or over a bunch of shoreline? If that photo is all there is then while odd and puzzling, is not a big worry. If this was everywhere...big worry.

Too bad, another problem for a lake that is already low and not in the greatest of shape.

I hope the 5 LM bass in there don't die. They're all over 10 lbs.
