Yes, you are doing it completely wrong. Fish have much higher VPIP than good players, so you will play more pots against them. Furthermore, they are more likely to be calling stations which makes them more difficult to play OOP. Finally, you are going to get most of your value from fish, not good players, making it more important that you have position on the fish to get max value (for instance, if you have AQ and flop comes Q82, good player will fold 89..fish will probably not).
