I'm not a big fan of ankle weights, as I think they tend to get overused ... but they are a legitimate help for some (rare) people.
Also, are you sure you're not just underweighted, and tipping head down to maintain your position in the water? Have you done a weight check with only reserves in your tank?
Another thought ... what kind of fins are you using? Some fins are positively buoyant. If your fins float without you in them, consider exchanging them for a heavier, rubber fin like a Jet or F1.
