Single column figure leaves a blank in the other column?

I am writing in a double-column template (IEEE Conference Template).
What has been bothering me is that once I have a figure/pseudocode/tikz in one column, sometimes it pushes the contents in the other column down, as if it wanted to occupy both columns.
Like so:
But in fact it only takes up one column.
Sometimes I can solve this issue by moving the figure snippet around. But it is definitely a method by luck...
What is the formal way of solving this issue?
My sincere apologies for not providing a MWE. I have tried very hard, but the problem never appears while creating a MWE!

You should make the figures smaller. There is always a predefined gap between two columns that you cannot exceed. Puting two plots with 0.5linewidth side by side will always result in an overflow and the plots will be placed underneath each other. Rather make them 0.495linewidth or so.
