You say you've tried playing "like a rock," but I sort of doubt that your definition of the phrase "like a rock" is different than most people's. Against loose fish you should usually be tightening way up and waiting for premium hands so you can value bet them all the way to hell and back.

Do you use any poker software like Poker Tracker or Holdem Manager? If so, consider posting your stats on this thread so people can see how you really play. If you don't have either of those, and you're at all serious about poker, you should consider getting some software, or at least trying out some free trials. It's software like this that will be crucial to plugging up leaks, getting decent hand histories to review, and being really frickin' fun to mess around with. :D

Other than that, quick rules about playing against loose, fishy players:
- Play fewer hands
- Play in position as much as possible
- Try to raise more and call less - do not allow multiway limped pots
- Value bet them MERCILESSLY -> if they will call 3 streets of pot-sized bets with middle pair, you punish them for it!

Hope that helped, but really, software and posting hand histories on CC for review will be some of your best resources in improving your game.
