I had a bat actually take my fly just as it hit the water. he broke off as soon as I thumbed the reel, he stripped out about 30' of line in the blink of an eye though, but I use 3-5lb test leader.technically bats use something more like sonar, you may be able to find something that emits ultrasonic sound waves that may drive them away.My guess is that the bat managed to bruise the line or somehow got a knot in it. it doesn't take much bruise mono and once it happens line strength goes down in a hurry, one good knot or kink in your 12lb test and your down to about 4-5lb test.
