How to add a loot table to a custom fishing rod?

I have made a custom fishing rod (the baited rod) and I want to make it so that it fishes up extra fish. I have tried to do this with procedures by spawning items when fishing occurs, but this doesn't seem to work. I thought I could give it a custom loot table to do a similar effect, but I dont understand how I can assign a loot table to the fishing rod item.

Assign the fishing rod loot table to the registry name. For example, if the registry name was "baited_fishing_rod"

You would set the loot table type to "Fishing" and then on loot table registry name, write out "Fishing/baited_fishing_rod".

If done correctly, this SHOULD work. I have not tested this particular instance myself, so if anything goes wrong, please inform me.
