Tell me about it. Not all mono splits well. And as it gets older it gets even worse. I usually use 30 lb. (?) Maxima but I have split 10 lb. It's surely a useful skill to have...no telling when you might want to split some mono.

Or rent a pig...

This is the identical technique that is used for boar's bristle...
