Given a surface bundle over the circle M, we find a condition of the monodromy characterizing when certain immersed essential surfaces have the 1-line property. As a consequence, when M is hyperbolic, the surfaces are not homotopic to a totally geodesic surface. Furthermore, they cannot be the canonical surface of a non-positively curved cubed structure on M.
