Micro bet into a very wet board

HJ: $143.30 (Hero)
CO: $268.90
BN: $21.50
SB: $62.45
BB: $100
UTG: $40.25
This is rush game. Do not have may notes on the villain, but stats suggest he is loose and aggressive, playing 46/24/8.2 with an AF of 4.5 over 250 hands
Preflop ($1.50) (6 Players)
Hero was dealt J 9 A K
UTG folds, Hero raises to $3, CO raises to $10.50, BN folds, SB folds, BB folds, Hero calls $7.50
Thoughts on calling the 3-bet here? Given 8% 3-be frequency, I feel aces are not a great part of his range + given the nutty components, I feel this is a straightforward hand to play, even OOP
Flop ($22.50) 8 J 7 (2 Players)
Hero checks, CO bets $3, Hero calls $3
obviously a scary board, but given the bet size, it is very unlikely he has the straight here (this was probably a misclick, although I have seen players do this to shove after a raise).
Turn ($28.50) 8 J 7 9 (2 Players)
Turn brings me the second pair so I now have top two, nut spade and straight draws. I am quite certain that I have the best hand here but what is the best line to take? My first choice would be to bet/call as I would never check a straight on the here given the second club on board. The result is that it gets rid of all his bluffs (he can fire a big second barrel after my flop call) and also sets, which I am behind.
Is checking an option here? He has a 91% cbet frequency on turns, so likely that he would fire a second barrel and if he does, do I call or raise?

As always, thoughts on all streets very welcome.
Thank you in advance.
