Flop : i like to raise against his min bet since i can extract value over hands like pp, Jx, LP and draws
I don't raise big because i want him to call large for my second barrel turn
Turn : 2nd barrel for value over Tx Jx and draws
River : I am not sure of what i should do here but i tried a blocking bet. Since he is passive i tought he wasn't very likely to raise bluff and some of his 2P. I expected him to x back all his hands that i beat so a bet here can be profitable.
What do you think ?

What made him passive? 10/6 or 75/30 with AF of 0.4? What makes him a "fish"? What do you expect to get called by on the turn? What Tx does a "passive fish" come to the turn with? When you check - do you expect a "passive" player bluff the river against your line - or why did you feel compelled to blockbet? Too many questions. Try to come up with answers. ;-)
Aside from the hand, if you don't mind, let me give you some hints:
1) Stop calling players "fish". Not only because it's derogative but because it clutters your mind. Try to dig deeper. It will make YOU a better player overall.
2) Ask specifically. Give as much information as possible. Too often I read posts like "how's my line against a fish?". What should one reply to that?! A 99/2 might be as huge of a "fish" as a 3/2 player or 54/42 or any other extreme variation. Again, go into the details. What do you know about him? If you label him as a "fish", you HAVE to have some reads. What is it? Show respect to those who you ask for advice. And get better advice.
Win-win-win. :)
thanks for your tips ! i had very few hands on him, i just saw his passivity on previous showdowns
if you think he is a passive fish then him raising pre and betting small is indicative of a stronger than average range
using that information the adjustment ought to be a flop call instead of a raise, dont let the small sizing distort your prior information
I would have played the same in a vacuum. Ofc the wider his range is the better.
