Real chance of enchanted book when fishing

I have a rod with a [Luck of the Sea III, Unbreaking III, Lure III, Mending I].

Catches:

  • Fish x169

  • Junk x8

  • Treasure x16

Treasures:

  • Name Tag x5

  • Lily Pad x4

  • Nautilus Shell x1

  • Saddle x3

  • Fishing Кod x2

  • Bow x1

So there is the question: what is a real chance for each of treasure? Actually I'm trying to catch an enchanted book, but there is no a single one. Is it just my bad luck, or is something really wrong?

Average chance to get an enchanted book is 1-2 books per 100 catches. 

Thats average though. Minecraft does not log past catches (to my knowledge) and as such. operates under RNG. 

You could technically get 1000 catches and still not get a book. But you more than likely just have bad luck.

It's just bad luck. When treasure is selected, enchanted books have a 1/6 chance to drop. The chance of you not getting any after 16 rolls is (5/6)^16, ~5.4% chance of happening.
