Does make it a bit harder to cast.
You could have the line hung in big loops on the front of the cannon to it lifts it of the hanger as it leaves

Sitting on the reef, watching the sharks and catching gurnard, sound like a previous life I had with a brother-in-law, many years ago. Or surfing in front of the store or the lagoon with the waves coming over the gap and getting the mini bellied in the soft sand.
