There are a lot of different variables. This last winter when a lot of people were getting them in deeper water off of structure with the yoyo, you'd look for deepwater structure and many concentrated small arches (bait) or bigger arches (yellows) and drop down. When they're dispersed in the water column, similarly, you still wanna find some bait and as you're paddling around, you'll sometimes come across bigger arches, sometimes you'll see the marks rising which means they're coming to the surface or hitting bait.
It's gonna come down to practice and time on the water. Don't forget to look for other signs like you had mentioned, birds working or bait on the surface. That's always a good indicator for bigger fish around. When you see what bait looks like, remember that then when you hook up on a yellow, remember what the meter looked like when you spotted them. Same goes for other species, squid, etc.
Good luck
