I did the 3 way for a few years, I have moved to the spider. Yes you get tangles, but I try to limit the amount of knots. I like the swivel for the weight idea.

Plus fishing the charters on a hot bite its a lot faster to rig up.

Albright at floro/braid, spider hitch 12" loop mid way down about 4' to double surgeons on the end another 4' for my weight, big loop to swap out weights pending current change.

Hi.
Here is a different way of tying a dropper loop that will not tangle.
The twist keeps the loop at a 90 degree angle to the main line.
It take just a little bit of practice, but gets the job done.

Good luck.

My 2 cents.

The problem normally happens from reeling UP too fast. The hooked fish tend to spin. Slow down when coming up. It will also save the fish you loose from spin off.
