I assume you haven't gotten to the plains yet? It wasn't an issue for me until now, since I've gotten impatient due to having so much new content to focus on, and have gotten sick of constantly stocking up on food only to need more. Perhaps I'm overestimating what quality food I need, but the later game food takes FOREVER to get, even just a few meals worth. Wolves rarely spawn. Lox rarely spawn and take forever to kill. Thistle, well I have to search for it for a while. I have to find a ton of Draugr to make a few sausages. It's just really time consuming and boring IMO.
I have a 2 star boar farm in my complex, feed all the meat to wolves, and stick wolves outside my walls. Every event, many wolves die (but they do a great job of keeping enemies from infiltrating the complex itself). This generates a lot of wolf meat. I farm onions to feed the pigs and use extra for onion soup and wolf skewers. This method seems to work well. I've started to farm lox, too, but it is a little less efficient, albeit more worthwhile. I don't leave lox unpenned because they simply rampage too much, destroying all of my out buildings and tree farms.
Fishing, though - I find it tedious. I'm not sure it's worth it.
