What are your thoughts about hedging a long position in VFIIX by owning a position in a fund like TBT?

For someone who is almost age 70 trying to preserve capital in uncertain times, do you have any better (from your viewpoint) suggestions on how to protect oneself from rising rates while continuing to own and get that premium interest income from VFIIX?
