Why not c-bet and hope to get folds? With the A on the board, you're no longer looking for value, you're looking to take it down asap.

Call turn. You don't get value from much worse, and you can't make a better hand fold. Probably bet river small if checked to. Get some value from Jx/9x, and you look more bluffy.

Because fish love playing big ace hands, suited Ax, even Ace rag. And it's multiway. We block straight draws to their calling range too.

I like your play.. this minbet is often worse and some draws hit the turn.. def raise.

Good flop check too.. well played sir!

Against fish CB is for value, they will call Jx, Tx, Qx, Kx and some 9x, I’m ok with checking and not CB too because value line is not pure and no need to complicate things by building pot against fish with this hand.
Min bet OTT should be mostly Jx hands and draws, bad Ax usually bets a bit larger.

NL2 is nowhere near as station-y as you make it seem. And I've played iPoker NL2 these last couple of weeks.

i looking 4 value in any situations.
Then there is very little left to be gained once that flop comes.

Call the turn min-bet, try to get to showdown for next to nothing, otherwise you can just check/fold that flop.
