In Minecraft, players can place enchantments on several different items that can be beneficial to them, such as tools, weapons, and armor. These enchantments can be placed using an enchanting table or an anvil.

Enchanting tables can be crafted using four blocks of obsidian, two diamonds, and one un-enchanted book.

Anvils are crafted using four iron ingots and three iron blocks. To use an anvil, players will need an enchanted book, which can be found all around the Minecraft world, in strongholds, chests, and by fishing.

If players wish to get enchanted books from fishing in Minecraft, they will need the Luck of the Sea enchantment. It offers them a chance to pull an enchanted book on the fishing rod (not enchanted), but the odds are almost impossible.

The Luck of the Sea enchantment is an amazing effect for players to have on fishing rods in Minecraft. It can be found on both an enchanting table or as an enchanted book.

The Luck of the Sea enchantment increases a player's chances of getting rare loot such as enchanted books or name tags by fishing.

The Lure enchantment increases the rate of items biting the hook. This enchantment will allow players to catch more items while using the fishing rod and that too in a shorter period.

The only similarities this enchantment shares with Luck of the Sea are that they are both used for the fishing rod and prevent junk items from being pulled.

To conclude, the Lure enchantment allows players to catch more items, but the Luck of the Sea enchantment allows players to get more valuable items.
