Default $6 NLTRN: Q6s calls down

This hand was from one of the most frustrating matches I've played. I was almost completely card dead, and my opponent was very aggressive/fishy. If he called my PFR, he would donk the flop 100% (usually for about 2/3 pot). Also, he would keep betting on the turn and river. I tried calling the flops with overcards and floating some, but usually I wouldn't hit anything on the turn and would end up folding to his inevitable turn bet. I raised once on the flop, to try to see if by raising I could get him to slow down (I had second pair weak kicker, the best hand I'd had postflop until that point), and he called. He then called my turn bet and when I checked behind on the river, he took it down with top pair.

Also, if he didn't call PF, he would almost always 3-bet, and I almost always had something like K6s or Q9o. At this point he had only folded twice PF (both times when I raised w/ AA). When in position, he raised almost every hand to 3 BB.

So I decided that I needed to take a stand at some point. Was this okay, or should I have raised earlier or folded the river?
