I had a similar encounter with a "Bobber Man". I was trolling Pymie and decided to head north of the causeway. As I passed under the bridge I pulled my 2 outside rods in and continued to run the middle 2 rods. Suddenly I realized we had picked up a line from a Bobber Man that was shore fishing just on the other side of the causeway. In hindsight I should have stopped, but I was on a mission and moving at about 4mph. Long story short, it became a tug-of-war and his mono didn't stand a chance against my 100lb powerpro.
