Hey sorry to leave you hanging for a couple days. I typed out a response to this a day or two ago but I must have never submitted it lol.
Just because a fish has certain stats pf doesn't mean that they all play the same way postflop, and that of course will have an effect on how you should deal with them going forward. Pay attention to when the fish is playing hands even if you aren't in the hand and make a note to yourself how loosely they are continuing after the flop. In general though this type of opponent should be very easy for you to beat. They are going to be calling with a lot of hands that you are going to dominate no matter what position you are opening from. Just make sure you are taking advantage and getting full value.
