Fishing drops don't come towards player

When the fishing rod catches an item, the item does not reach the player as it normally does in other versions, it floats nearby instead. My fishing rod had lure 3 and luck of the sea 3 on it although the same effect appears with a normal fishing rod as well. After some initial testing it does not affect water 1 block deep (the item zooms towards players like normal) but with 2 block deep water (and I assume deep depths as well) the items move a little and then just sink. If the bobber is in the block next to the player then the player can pick up the item, but anything further than that, the item just sinks.
It is a little hard to capture the effect in screenshots
