Are you trying to clear E-3? On what difficulty?

I haven't found a good use for seaplane fighters yet since I think day-time double attacks are too valuable to drop for it. However, if you cannot achieve air superiority, none of your shipgirls will be about to perform a DA anyway. Having your CAVs sacrifice their ability to DA so that others are able to is definitely viable.

Have you tried equipping all fighters on your CVLs yet? Turning them into "Reppuu mules" is actually a better option since they usually do less damage to the tougher targets than CAVs.
