If it was fortune, you would have to mine stuff with it, and you can't mine (and obtain) minerals with rods, so it would be pointless. Luck of the sea makes it work for fishing and not mining.
Besides what the gentleman above said,fortune would imply that you get something actually worth while. Luck of the Sea relies on luck that you get something useful.
The wiki entry is wrong. It decreases the chance of junk, and increases the chance of treasure. It does not simply turn junk into fish, which would be most unhelpful.
The other night I fished up two saddles. The spell books would be nice too if they didn't keep coming up with two level 4 enchants, but one is armor only and other is weapon only.

I put in a ticket when I first noticed how awful the drops where when using a LotS pole. If it's been addressed, then I must have missed the email closing my ticket on the issue tracker.
In fact, I still have better "luck" with a regular / unbreaking pole than one with luck on it.
unrelated, but the hard math on lure may prove it works, but the actual mechanics behind catching fish means unless that's all you do for several hours straight, you won't notice any difference.
The enchants are, at the moment, worthless and need reworked.

LotS got me a rod with Lure II/Unbreaking III, which is my current favorite... I don't mind the occaisional bowl or pair of boots, much prefer the faster fishing.

It is really different from fortune, which increases the number of drops.
From the wiki. Accurate and fairly junky (in my opinion). I have better "luck" with normal poles.
