No. It's the sound of a large, wet, piscine(sp) lifeform impacting on
someones face.

(I.E. carp)

There was a sketch called the fish dance where two people are standing on a
canal towpath. Music begins to play. One of the people starts dancing
around, slapping the other in the face with little fish. The music stops.
The other bloke pulls out an enormous carp and knocks the first bloke into
the canal with it.
