Just get a pair of round nosed pliers and some 1.6mm 316L stainless welding wire. Those could be easily knocked up in a matter of seconds.

I remember someone trying to get hold of them a few years ago and they weren’t available then.

A few years ago one of the pro staff for savagear france told me thst they will stop ptoducing them.

Not sure if they did but it could explain why they are now hard to find.

Thanks for the replies lads. Being discontinued would explain why they are hard to pick up.
Going to go with Steves advice and have a go at making them myself.

I got some 1.6mm stainless seel and made up some. Worked a treat

@Ratty46 not sure about the the 4d ones. All of the 3d 30 & 40cm ones I have the first treble is inside the lure so only 2 hook points exposed. Was looking for the modifiers to allow them to hang freely.

ah right,. i use the smaller ones, 15 and 20cm, single trebles, can see why you want them bit more exposed, much bigger lure

On the 40cm the largest size modifiers dont hold in well, and on the 30cm you need to use the largest size and not the recommemdee size.

One guy i know uses the hook that the 40cm came with as a modifier, amd cuts off 2 of the hook points.This holds in much better
