Keith,

Get the Aftco roller troller clip, I have trolled 9'er shad umbrella rigs on this one and the clip doesn't pop. (not at 6 knots but I bet I could get it to hold) You can adjust it as tight as you want. It is not cheap something like 20someodd bucks each. The only thing I could concieve being a problem is if you have a really stong vibrating lure like a giant deep diver on this at 6 knots, maybe then it might pop open but you may be able to get it to hold. try it. (they work great as flat line clips too.)
