I'm no expert on this but the same thing happened to me when I first planted my strawberry plants. I got little or no fruit the first couple of years, then they just took off and I started getting fruit like crazy. I did nothing different. Just let them grow.

Fertilize in the spring, then stop..Strawberries do better on the moist side, in full sun..
Most plants bare fruit early in the season, then revert to making runners...
too much Fertilizer is probably your problem..imho.
