NL5 2pair river jam by fish

This hand was played with the fish.
Plan on the flop is to raise cbet but action went check/check.
I think that opponent range is weak but sometimes can have FD but I would expect a lot of betting with FD from opponent even from fish.
On the turn my thinking was that I need to cbet to get value from one card FD but I got min raised. At this point I am still thinking that I have most of the time better hand.
River pairs the board but I do not expect a lot of 3x in opponent range.
What should I do on the river?

When I reviewed this hand I got an idea that maybe checking the turn is as good as betting and I should mix it.
Turn card is not that good for me but it is not terrible. Also I don't think I have 2 streets of value vs opponents weak range. And on xh fiver I can just put my hand into the muck.

Its a meh spot, but im calling this for several reasons:

  1. UTG starts with a weird stack size pre, so probably a rec
  2. His line is not really consistent. So theory wise Villain should have a decently protected checking range OTF (OP/2p/sets/FD...) But most players do a poor job of constructing a range like that. Ie: Check back ranges from weaker players tend to be weaker because they mostly bet their strong hands/hands with high Equity (like FD) too much.
  3. Kind of the same of #2 applies to raising ranges OTT which is basically a coincidence.
  4. The price is fairly good.
  5. We block boats

So sure: Villain is repping a checked back FD or turned set (rivered quads) pretty good and I wouldn't be shocked to see a better hand on a decent frequency here, but given the price and the potential randomness of a red, im never folding here (this would be a complete different story vs a reg btw.)

Thanks for the answer. I do really had the same feeling that we might be behind a lot but as weirdly play opponent value but also we might see here A7off with 0 equity.

I called and lost to T8off which was kind of a shock for me :D
