Lure
Lure is an enchantment applied to fishing rods that decreases the wait time for bites when fishing.
Lure can be obtained from enchanting tables, drops from mobs that have spawned in a raid‌[Bedrock Edition only], books obtained by fishing, monster room chests, librarian villagers, and non-village structure loot.
In Java Edition, Lure increases the rate of something biting the player's hook while fishing. Specifically, it decreases the wait time for something to appear by 5 seconds per level. See Fishing for more information.
