Default I was berated for being a fish on this one

The table as a whole was very tight. Villain specifically may as well been the leader - 14% VP$IP PFR only 3% although he did like the checkraise. Lots of unraised pots and raised pots had rarely more than three people seeing the flop.

Since it was tight I was playing more speculative hands with position (i.e. lower suited connectors, one-gappers, unsuited connectors, weakish aces). I won a few hands with favorable flops and I chased a few people away on misses with position betting. Thus far I hadn't shown much and my numbers for the session were my usual LAG/TAG hybrid.

Final Pot: $90

After the pot, he betared me, calling me a fish repeatedly. He even did a little ASCII-art fish in the chat box. I was honored and amused! He also correctly surmised my holdings. So is playing like this sometimes okay in a "mixing it up" way when I think that I can buy pots down the road? Or am I a luckbag fish?
