Garry you are LEGENDARY!!! I know hundreds of italian spearos and none of them ever happened to spear an 8 kilograms lampuga in our waters. For sure it was a lucky encounter, but no doubt you were clever to land it.
I'm happy you did it in the location I suggested. Makes me think we can make a lucky duo so I'll be knocking on your door some of these days.

PS: (if it happens again don't forget the legal harvest limit: the bounty is one thousands euros if you exceed and the Coast Guard is lashing hard on us spearos)
