Mike- to be clear, you want the ones that are symmetrical hole to tip (identical to top right in your first pic)... NOT the broad-shouldered, larger ones shown on all of the lures in your first pic, correct?

I used to get #4 willows from Worth, Lakeland, and another source - and I remember getting an odd-ball size batch (this was a decades back), but don't recall from whom. I may have to dig through some old boxes and see if I still have them, or any of my order info from the business.
Can you measure the size you need (exact length and width, with a caliper) and post it here?

I want what is on the baits in the pic. 3 and 3.5 sizes

When you find them can I get a tandem nickle in shad pattern.
Haha good luck with the search if I run across anything I'll let you know.
