definitely NOT the 2nd fin from the left
at first I thought none of them, but there are weedfins similiar to what is depicted
the side rails on the pink one may be a concern, but my Lessacher weed has some grooves -- MUCH smoother ones

i would guess far left and the black one ....
did I win ??

The pink strata fin is a weed catcher that sure is a great weed collector probably the best one, although the football fin (second from left) will also collect weed. I think none of these are true anti-weed fins, although the red and black one will shed weed the easiest.

None of the above
However BEST weed fin = Lockwood (Tribal) super-weed or speed weed 10/10

I'll do you one, or would that be two better. The Walu 2 twinzers, not even weed fins, this is my main go-to set up, and weeds don't stick to them.
But for a single, your choice would be hard to beat.

I used to have a bright yellow football fin; not the cut away trailing edge like above, but the full oval! Wish I could find it!!

You might want to sniff them carefully to find out.

Best weed fin IMO is the MXR UFO. Way better than the Tribal fin. Heaps more lift and much more solid under foot in chop.

I think they work best in Wa conditions.In our gusty conditions mine shovelled up seagrass while subplaning.
