Forgive me for saying so, but this made me laugh a lot.
If you have a bluff-catcher, you use it to catch villain's bluffs. By CALLING.
FWIW, I would often fold that river. Villain usually has you beat, probably with a 6 or a random pocket pair. (Although he should generally be check-calling with hands like those, as they would be decent bluff-catchers themselves). If you raise, it's because
you're bluffing in order to try and make villain fold a better hand, and the reason you're raising is because you don't think your hand is strong enough to catch bluffs.
