I had the same problem, you can connect to your bridge by two means:

1. through orport, the bridge line should be:

<ip>:<Orport> 

without obfs4 in the beginning.

2. through obfs4: you need to find out your bridge line, it's under
/var/lib/tor/pt_state/obfs4_bridgeline.txt
the line is like this

obfs4 <IP ADDRESS>:<PORT> <FINGERPRINT> cert= iat-mode=0 

now the port is the obfs4 port

hope this helps
