The art of fishing consists of casting, winding, trolling and jigging

Not a gummy...
...gummies are a uniformly grey with small white spots, plus the 1st dorsal is too far back. My best guess is a chubby little cat shark, possibly up the duff?

Grey Carpetshark
Correct - however, this species standard name in Australia is now Grey Carpetshark. The species name is unchanged (C. punctatum).
