Losing Irons to the kelp! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Ugh, I'm down $30 in irons in 2 days.

Anyone have suggestions on how to NOT lose Irons to the kelp? I avoid casting into the heavy stuff as much as I can, I even shorten my casts (I can usually get it out 60-70 yards, but keep it to 30-40 so I at least know where its going.

If it get hung up, I usually avoid tugging on it, so it doesn't get embedded, paddle over the kelp and try and work it up.

Anyone have suggestions for me, it's getting expensive and frustrating lol.
