Strong Fishing Pole is one of two low level upgrades to the [Fishing Pole], and is the only one available to the Horde. Human, Dwarf, and Gnome characters who want a fishing pole with a low bonus to fishing skill may want to buy the Strong Fishing Pole rather than wait until they can get to Darkshore for the 
[14] The Family and the Fishing Pole quest that awards the [Blump Family Fishing Pole].
If you want to trade up to the Strong Fishing Pole for +5 fishing skill, consider that the Fishing Pole is disposable and replaceable when your bags get full, and you can buy 20 [Shiny Bauble] lures for the same money as the Strong Fishing Pole. They grant +25 fishing skill lasting 10 minutes each, 200 minutes total, that's a lot of fishing time, plus you don't have to spend it all at once, just buy the lures as you need them. +5 fishing skill will not help much at low levels, but just one Shiny Bauble when you first start fishing in your starting zone will allow you to quickly pass the no missed catches level 30 fishing skill - or just one [Bright Baubles] in your capital city to pass the no missed catches level 75 fishing skill for the slightly harder fishing areas. In the hardest areas +5 is not nearly enough, and you are going to want a much better fishing pole anyway. However, this pole is significantly better than the basic Fishing Pole for use in combat.
