It actually starts at a lower level than the 150-200 you listed. Starting somewhere around 50-75 you will start seeing that the skill-ups start taking 2 successful hooks per skill up and it fairly quickly will work up toward that 8-9 hooks needed per skill up that you are seeing at around the 285 to 290 fishing skill. I never bothered to look at where the break points are at for the different rates, but do recall it was something like 5 or 6 hooks per skill up when the fishing skill is near 225 (skill cap prior to completing the fishing quest).
