Has anyone tried directional downrigger weights? Looking at the ones made by fishfinder

Im thinking of adding a 3rd rigger to my spread next year and theres no way im gonn get 3 in there without a mess unless i use somethig to swing my outside riggers out. Trying to avoid using wingers and i already have to much gear to carry around.. do these tend to tangle into dipseys at all? I guess id have to use all #1 dipseys unless going reAlly deep with mag dipseys because of tangles?

I had a couple round ones with cupped fins, they didn't do squat.

Expensive, but the wingers are the way to go. We run four all the time with almost no tangles. The only time I have seen a tangle was a result of having one cable way shorter than the others so the counter was way off.
