Thanks, Bob!
 
The marking on the fish body tells it all. It's definitely a mudskipper with a much distorted head ...

Well done, Owen! You got it!  
 
The tide was just coming in when this shot was made hence this little chap wasn't diving into the mud ... And you can see the mudskipper came out so clean too.

I thought you didn't like the mudskipper collectors, it looks as though you have changed your mind
