I was a hard core bankie for the first 40 years of my life until I became a boat owner so I believe I am unbias here.
You did nothing wrong based on the circumstamces you described.
Dude who is leavng his gear unattended is at fault, breaking the law and is obnoxious to get mad at the boat operator for catching his gear.
Every boat operator needs to be cognizent of the bankie, and swing wide of the area the bankie is fishing.
It is hard to spot just a rod on the bank, with out a person standing next to it like they are supposed to.
