Dropper loops without a 3 way swivel always gave me problems as well. Didnt matter which knot. Dropper loop, reverse dropper, spider hitch, surgeons loop, they all create line twist. Try to switch over to a three way (not talking girls) and make the weighted side leader about half the length as your hook side. I like to run 20lb on the weight and 30 or 40lb on the hook. When you start drifting, make sure when you paddle back up current, that you dont make circles around your rig. Wind back up, then reset the drift.
