Yori3o's Grappling Hooks Winch Enchantment addon
by Technnaretwo
Yori3o's Grappling Hooks Winch Enchantment addon adds a winch enchantment that lets a grappling hook pull mobs and other entities toward the player.
What it does
The winch enchantment attaches a held entity to the hook, then pulls it toward the player when the hook is released with a right-click. Enchanted hooks can also anchor an entity in place, much as they anchor a block. The enchantment can be obtained from enchanting tables, from villager trades and from looting. It sits at a moderately rare level 30. The addon requires Fabric API and Yori3o's Grappling Hooks, and it runs on Fabric for 1.21.11 only. Only the client needs it, so servers can run without it.

What the author says
While Yori3o's popular grappling hooks mod is awesome in and of itself, I thought it would be cooler if you could use the grappling hook on mobs. This mod adds that functionality to the game via an enchantment called winch, which allows you to attach to entities and pull them towards you when you release the hook…
