apple trees seem to be plentiful so feeding your self early game should be hard
as far as rabbit and chickens are concerned get unarmed combat, stand only one tile away then use punch.
for fishing, you will need a pole, string, hook, and bait or lure. string can be found for the foraging skill, you will notice a gather-able plant on the ground, i forget its name, consult the wiki for foraging and look at the first plant on the list.
hooks will need to be made from bone
string isn't crafted at all, rather string refers to various plant fibers, so to reiterate there is no in game object called "string", the above mentioned foraging skill, once obtained and plant is gathered, you click on the plant in inventory then left click the pole.
fishing is also a very slow way to gain xp, though you can semi afk and do it
here is a quick list of things to do to gain a ton of LP which are all much faster than fishing
1. get necessary skills for stone laying and pave a fair square of land
2. build a cabin on said land (you may want wheel making a cart helps a lot with this) (make sure not to clear cut forests, and not cut in peoples back yard)
3. start a farm, if you PM me your hearth secret (on the forum) I can arrange to give you a few seed.
4. don't forget to set your personal belief slider, consult the wiki, this will allow more lp gain per action.
