I should make note that we're fishing Lake Michigan, but the fish still - in general - react the same. If you're in an area where there's few/no marks AND no action, there's no point in sticking around. It's time to move.
If you've got good marks/bait, play with your spread until it starts firing. I'm typically the one working the deck on our boat and if my 'work queue' is any less than 5 things, I'm being lazy. I'm always doing something - whether it be changing a bait, adjusting a lead, adjusting depth, or resetting lines - I'm always busy.
