Flyline or Weight For Summer Yellows? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I'm wondering what the best and brightest are doing for this. I haven't been out much lately and not sure which way to go. In past years I had strictly flylined macs, then later added 1/2 oz weight above the leader to keep it down a bit for better trolling, and less gulls diving on it, and sometimes did both at the same time for the hi-low. I'm not keen on doing both right now because it's a hassle when sea lions come and increases the chance of kelp snags. I don't remember what worked best in the past but I think it might have been flylined.

What say you?
