My primary concern is killing the bait or causing it to spin. If I am trolling a live bait I can probably manage 4.5mph with a fairly relaxed tempo, and that's ideal because I can cover a lot of ground, but if the bait is dead or spinning like a flasher it negates the purpose lol
Use a barrel swivel to prevent spinning.
