Default Hi-Lo or Dropper rigs?

I am going to set up some high low striper rigs and I was wondering what works better. Three way swivels with leaders or dropper loops. A Friend of mine likes to go with dropper loops, but the guy at the local tackle shop say's he prefers three way swivels with leaders. Any feedback???

If you can tie a good dropper then I would recommend going with that, less chance of a tangle. Use a fishfinder rig for the weight on a length of shock leader A true dropper will give you two hooks while a three-way only gives you one. Use two poles and try both methods at the same time. Of course you could still use a three-way and a FF which gives you two hooks, but more tangles. You want to keep as much in-line to avoid helicoptering of the bait. Whichever catches the most fish and is easier for you to use, go with that one.
