For flatline clips I use wooden clothes pins with a piece of heavy mono thru the spring that is long enough to loop onto the transom D-rings. In addition, a rubber band is wound around the end of the clothes pin and can be adjusted for holding power. This allows the lines to be just above the water line and the drag on the rod can be set for initial strike or close to free spool if you prefer. In addition, if you like a delay in setting the hook, a loop of line can be set out from the rod back to the clip to allow a drop back before the rod drag comes into play. Just my .02 . (about what this system cost me)
