Default adding fish carcasses

Hello on this sub zero record freezing Monday from Northern New Jersey.. This past weekend I filleted a few panfish from an icefishing trip .. the carcasses are in a bucket frozen outside. When milder weather returns I want to dig them in.. i was wondering if just a few chops and burying them just under the bed a few inches is all that is required. I do not have a grinder so just going to spread them a bit apart and chopping them up to try and evenly spread the carcasses .. I been thinking it is, the microbes that should do the rest by the time planting season begins? How long do these microbes and worms need to and breakdown and do their thing?
