No, not yet. Thought I'd put this post up in case people had any experience doing this sort of thing.
There are a few local clubs, would be good to find a club with some stock ponds so they could bring these fish on themselves...

I know of several 'well known' anglers who've moved small fish like those into the thames from waters with a good blood line. I know this because they've told me when i was discussing it with them. These fish are now being caught and will help offset the losses from seals and otters

Bound to be some local club/match lakes that would benefit from them even if they were given/donated to them rather than have no outsource for them a bit like Mark Bryant of Baitworks donating a load of small carp to Bitterwell lake in Bristol giving back to a match lake he started his fishing on.
Its a lot easier these days to get a site permit to stock fish into your fishery, moving them out for resale like a carp farm is a bit more involved, resale of course fish some use the like's of Ian Welby of Blueroof an independent fish health specialist to examine a percentage of the fish to see if he can give them a clean bill of health for resale, if approved the certificate is then lodged with the EA at Huntingdon and are then used in a Section 30 stocking consent process.

I belong to a Northern club that spent a ton of money on carp only for the otters to eat them its a sickening
