Cast a rod nearby an entity. If it is close enough, the bobber will go to the animal, even if it would have not hit it. Tested with sheep, cows, creepers, item frames, armor stands, and villagers. In the screenshots, you can see that I would have not hit the sheep, but I did. This happens even if the fishing bobber's hitbox and the entity's hitbox don't touch.

That's not what I mean, Sonic. If the bobber wouldn't have hot the entity, it still atracts the bobber to it. Even if it's not within the entity's hitbox.
Works as intended. This is a new mechanic where the fishing bobber becomes fully attached to the mob. If it is within the hitbox of the mob, it attaches.

WAI. Fishing rods now properly hook onto entities.
