I had 1 base in total tickle the boss node (I have poor planes for that kind of range), but my CVs I got by with more bombers among my 4 CVs. Some of the CVs had the fighters in the small slot. though you said you were using all TBs, but I found I had decent luck with DBs for half the CVs. My Hiryuu had the 601 and Egusa dive bombers, and a Reppu in the 3rd slot. She was pretty good for popping whatever big ships were left over. The other 3 CVs I sued, Zuikaku, Shokaku, and Souryuu were all using various TBs.

I'm seeing other people recommend sending fighters with the land base, if you can, surely do so. I had a skilled type21 and two bombers and a Catalina (I simply don't have any more fighters with the range...somehow). The land bombers with the range for the boss rarely did anything.
