Seeking: Advice - Air Pockets under Fiberglass

I am working on my first S&G kayak build and fiberglassed the inside of the hull today. Unfortunately, I didn't do the best job laying the cloth and now I have some air pockets along the keel seam. I tried to correct the problem before the epoxy kicked but I was not fast enough.

Can anyone suggest any remedies? Leave alone? Cut out the air pockets? Inject epoxy into the air pockets?

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
