Re: 3-betting light, the fish and you

Perhaps 3-betting wasn't the problem in this hand, it was the double barrel bluff vs. a calling station that was bad.

It's the combination of the two.
If you don't play well in re-raised pots, you shouldn't 3-bet that much.
In this spot, where the fish is going to call the flop with any pair, I think re-raising is very bad. The fish hadn't shown any tendencies whatsoever to either fold preflop or fold the flop to CBs (he had been in several spots where he took a small pair to the river).
I fail to see how stacking off with A-high against that player is a +EV move. While it's true this player is capable of stacking off with AJ here, it just isn't a big part of his range.
