You have bottom two pair, but the composition of the board is very important, because normally people dont open J6 or J4 from UTG. Or even from BTN for that matter, but from UTG we can completely remove those hands from his range. Which mean, you only lose to 5 combos of sets. Which is pretty much the same as flopping bottom set, where you lose to 6 combos of sets. This mean, that you should be completely happy to stack off with this hand, and the only question is, which way to best do it.

The more traditional line would be to go for a check-raise, but I dont hate your decision to donk out into him. A small donk like this can look weak and induce a spazz raise, which could be an argument for just calling and letting him barrel off on turn and river. But you are out of position, and a lot of cards are bad for bottom two pair. So I think, fastplaying is completely legit here, and you got it in good. Unfortunately he then drew out on you, but thats just poker :)
