100nl FD vs lead from fish

SB: 100.45
BB: 162.53
CO: 91
BN: 125.83 (Hero)
I have 15 hands on CO ,but he is a fish because he played 1 table and he limped this hand.
Preflop (1.50) (4 Players)
CO calls 1, Hero raises to 3.50, SB folds, BB folds, CO calls 2.50
I usually raise 4x ip and 5x oop ,idk why i made it 3,5 in this hand .
My range for isolating fishes is the same for opening in that position .Is that a good strategy ?
Flop (8.50) 4 T Q (2 Players)
CO bets 5.67, Hero calls 5.67
Vs unknown fish i can assume that his lead range can be very wide like any pair ,any draw or just complete air .What is the optimal line here ?
How do i defend against leading when i don't hit the flop ?Calling/raising with some good backdoors ?
Turn (19.84) 4 T Q 4 (2 Players)
CO checks, Hero checks
Should i bet here?
River (19.84) 4 T Q 4 A (2 Players)
CO checks, Hero bets 10
I bet the river because i'm trying to make him to fold some small pairs like 55 .

Don't see your hand,. I wouldn't pu him on small pockets. More like a draw or a week queen or a ten. When he checks the river and you don't have any showdown value I think you have to bet bigger if you want folds.

Ya I second that ^^. Although I think betting to get him off of a Q or a T could be dubious. I d want more airballs that I don t beat in his range and if you have a FD theres less FD combos and the NFD/ str8 draw got there. I think if you have K high you may not need to bluff as well as you have a shot at high carding him.

isolating should not use same hands as opening range when unopened
you want to isolate more if players behind are not very agro, exemple Qxs, Jxs etc

@R0b5ter
I see from time to time fishes leading with small pp because they don't know what to do with them .

@thedoors
Yes ,i agree but i was talking as a general idea .The most i'm having trouble is when i'm in the blinds .I don't know how loose should i be vs a unknown fish .Common spot :i'm in bb with 9s7s and a fish limps in utg or mp .I could check and see a free flop or i can raise and take the initiative ...

You have like ~50% equity with your draw + over so I'm raising a fish lead here like 100% of the time.

+1. I think you really wanna raise these sorts of weak leads as much as possible. Rec players just bleed $$ when they do this.

OTR I think your K high has some showdown value so I don t like it for your bluffing range as much esp as him folding a pair is optimistic. Much better turning J high or 9 high into a bluff if you insist on having a bluffing range here.

I'm fine with the flop, I really don't want to raise and get 3 bet here especially without the NFD. On the turn, I'd just bet half pot to try to take it down. It's fairly likely that someone who limp called preflop just led some random hand on the flop and is now going to have air quite a lot on that turn. As played, betting the river is probably a must.
