For increasing your bet sizing to matter, what has to happen? First, the opponent has to notice.
Second, even if he does notice, he has to act differently depending on your sizing.
At 2NL, it's simply not correct to assume everyone will do both of these things. It's more likely that the majority won't.
Especially at his level, fish make plenty of poor plays because they don't know any better or just can't help themselves. Giving them the chance to lose more when they make those poor plays can be pretty profitable.
