Regardless, for most players, a fishing pole comes LONG before the mountains. It's pretty obvious why you'd fish, it's to get better food. It's like asking why people would bother farming carrots when onions exist. They're available sooner.

This sums it up well. What the heck do you plan to do with 50 wolves??? Even just one is a pain is get any function out of.

Fish wraps are god tier food. That alone is enough of a reason to get it.
