Decoy weight question

[RUGER]

Ok so I am thinking about making some different style decoy weights.
I have some plastic "trays" that I got from work that were being thrown away.
They remind me alot of the flats that flowers come in.
Basically they are 12 individual pockets that are about 3 inches square and about 2 inches deep.
I was thinking about pouring them about an inch deep in concrete and then inserting my wire loop to attach the string to.
I was thinking insert the loop into the center of the square.
Then wrap my extra line around it and drop it in with the decoy attached.
Kinda like an "H" weight but will be solid.

I am wondering, if the water did come up would it flip over and over and release more string just like the "H" weights do?
I guess if I kept the extra wraps on one side or the other of the loop it should unwind ok without getting tangled up, right?

I'm so used to hunting water that has currents that I've never realized that benefit of the H weight letting line out if it picks up with the water level. It sounds like your idea would work, although I would think your line may slip off the weight and give you a tangled mess if it rolls the wrong way on its side. If your plastic tray is flexible enough maybe put a rubber band around each weight spot to create a hour Glass figure with square corners still. That would give the line a groove to stay in and not slip off while still not letting the weight roll too much in the event of a windy day. Either that or take a Dremel or chisel and make a groove in the weight to keep the line in after the concrete has set up

I went to Dollar Mart got me a cheap mini muffin pan put fishing swivels in lead after I poured them,.
