Q8s River bluff (5nl)

HJ: $3.74
CO: $5.27 (Hero)
BN: $5.88
SB: $3.02
BB: $2.81
SB = Unknown. Stack size and the fact that he limps pre flop tells me he probably is a recreational player (I am trying to not call people "fish")
Preflop ($0.07) (5 Players)
Hero was dealt Q 8
HJ folds, Hero raises to $0.17, BN folds, SB calls $0.15, BB folds
Standard opening for me on the CO with Q8s. I am focusing on playing more tight, so if this is too loose, please tell.
Flop ($0.39) J 2 9 (2 Players)
SB checks, Hero bets $0.20, SB calls $0.20
Turn ($0.79) A (2 Players)
SB bets $0.25, Hero calls $0.25
Decided to not go for a raise here. I still have my straight draw, the price is right. I believe he is on a weak draw and he wants to see a cheap river. Don't believe he has an A, but could be.
River ($1.29) 7 (2 Players)
SB checks, Hero bets $0.75
After him checking, I can't win the pot by checking back. So I am trying to make him fold here by telling I have a J, or an A myself. His whole line so far looked weak, however, I have no reads that he can fold weaker hands and in general, recreational players at 5nl don't really like to fold when they have something. So, in hindsight, I am just trying to make him fold his air.
