SPD or flats are what I've been testing. If I wasn't midfoot I'd already be on SPDs.
I liked the flats for jumping off for gates and stuff but I don't like slipping feet off and being clipped in is great for dragging the pedal up to get going again. Flats also then has the issue of finding shoes that work well pedaling and dry quick and all that stuff.
With my low bike, flats also tend to catch ruts and stuff on those byways/bridleways so that was annoying too. SPDs etc are a smaller unit, less likely to snag on stuff.

Looking for pedal recommendations. I had a great shakedown ride of the new Tripster a few days ago, but the only thing that was an issue was clipping in with my Keo road pedals and cleats on some of the steep off road stuff. I no longer own any mtb shoes, only road 3 bolt, but could pick some up I guess.
