Dropper Loop

The only way without tying a short loop, which the OP doesn't want to do, is to use wire that won't bend. Then you can keep your dropper line away from your mainline.

I've never gotten tangled using those swivels. Bait swims around and it doesn't wrap the line either.

Yup, swivels will work if the bait is causing your tangle. I interpreted his problem on the drop or the retrieve since he mentioned "dropping more slow".

Either way, I hope he finds the solution to his problem.
