My lowrance looked like this all day. Fished 6 hours and caught 4 fish. Tried flipping, worms, chatterbait, crankbaits, nothing would bite.

First pic: bubbles flowing up to the surface with catfish or gar suspending near them? Maybe?
Second pic: looks like your sensitivity needs to be turned up a little bit. Looks like catfish or gar.

I was wondering if it was bubbles, but I saw another post here recently that had similar pictures and people were saying it could be stacked sandbass

Take it you did not catch anything in that area? Troll a rattle trap or even better a medium to deep diving crankbait. If using crankbait make sure it will get to depth you plan to troll. Also adjust amount of line until it is ticking the bottom meaning will feel it bump bottom and then should feel it vibrate/swim then bump bottom. By trolling and looking at sonar and contour map you will get a better idea of what fish look like and how the different types of fish position in water column and on structure like pionts and humps. Crankbaits will catch anything that swims. Bass, sand bass, hybrids, striper, crappie, catfish, gar, drum, carp.

I always have mine on but doesn't seem to be as wide. I prefer it for any vertical fishing technique. I don't care for other techniques but my default is on.

Your first picture is similar to what I posted a few weeks back. I also
posted it over at BBC Lowrance forum and the concensus was bubbles also.

If it were a bigger fish there would be more yellow in the arch with that color. Or your sensitivity is set low, because those are pretty good size "blobs". But, graphing in that shallow of water isn't as accurate as 12ft+
