what sort of sharks are these

I caught 4 of these sharks in 298mtr,s of water the other day,they were all succsefully released they had 3 rows of small teeth and were only 40cm long big green eyes and very long nose,slighty grey on top and grey on top main dorsal fin had white tip on it and tail fin had black tip on it they were obviously only pups but just interested if anyone can identify them for me as I have fished these depths for a few years now and hav,nt seen anything like them,cheers.

if your deep dropping and have only just started to get them.
in my limited experience in the super deep when you drop and miss the spot you would do well to avoid these pricks.
