They look like Suckers to me.

Yes they are 110% White Suckers.  Very Common this time of year in most streams flowing into most lakes. Salmon are fall spawners and do not have inferior mouths (i.e. mouth pointing downward.) looks like 3 males and 2 females. The fish at the bottom is either a female or a male not in spawning colours.
