I had the same problem (and still screw it up from time to time), but here's the deal:

Don't get fancy with fish (do i need to put that in all caps?)

It's good that you've learned enough to read the board somewhat, put your opponent on a hand to a degree, and make sophisticated bluffs. Problem is, against many a fish, bluffs have no power. You're sophisticated poker is meaningless to them. Just tell your self that one day when you get to a higher level, you'll pull some tricks out of your bag and try them out, but for now, playing small stakes against poor players, just value bet.

Don't get fancy, no need. Save your fancy moves for better players, and then make sure they are able to lay down decent hands if you are gonna try a move. and don't over do it. In small stakes, i know it's boring and tedious at times, just show a hand, value bet when you got the best. Nothing fancy.

Now, this is coming from another small stakes player, so others with more exp. can chime in, but trust me on this, you lose more trying to make "moves" at low stakes poker than you gain. Or just do what I do, play a small-ball type of poker. Small c-bet bluffs on flops, but don't go further than that. Don't fire that second barrel except once in a blue moon at low stakes. And make sure you have a good read that the second barrel will work. For the most part, if the first smallish bluff doesn't take it, DON'T continue unless you have a real hand.
