Oh it won't take long. I have been in that situation many times below Pickwick. Having a 1000 series reel spooled with 2# test NanoFil if you hook into a 5# striper your probably going to lose all your line unless you grab the spool and break it off yourself. But with a good 2# test mono one stands a good chance of getting that fish in.....but it just takes too long.....takes away too much fishing time when the schoolies are in there. I like my kayak fishing but the older I get the more cold weather and me do not agree...LOL. Four years ago I was fishing in single digit temps below JPP but those days are gone. I can still take it in the mid 30's with no wind but that is the bottom for me.
