Fresh water fishing after cleaning fish what to do with the carcasses if there are no crabs or gust throw back in water to rot to other fish
They’ll become turtle food. Or you can bury them in your garden to enrich the soil.
Turtle food.
Bury them in your garden depending on where you live other wildlife will dig your garden up too.

Paul Verdi,
We live in a very rural area & I have a special place in the woods behind our house to get rid of old bread & such. After I clean fish or game I jump in my mule & take the remains to that spot. The coyotes & hogs clean up everything.
Toss back for crawdads and small minnows to pack on.

I would be shooting the hogs instead of fishing. Lol

If you garden fish scraps and carcasses make great fertilizer. Just bury it deep around your plants. I'm not talking 3' but grind or mash it up and bury it deep enough to keep the smell to a minimum. You'll be surprised how well it works.

You obviously live in a different part of our country. Just throw the scraps/carcasses back in the water. It will be recycled.
I grind up all the rest of the fish, freeze it, when I go cat fishing I use it for chum!!! You can had just about any thing to it. I put wild hog liver in it and a few rotten oinions in it. Make up your own secret chum!!!
We don't have the wild hogs in our state yet. I have hunting them on my bucket list.
It’s hard to believe but in Alaska some harbors are posted you can’t threw the remains of any fish in the harbor! I asked why the change, stated that the sea lions are bitting people and for harassment ! I have a pic of a sign but don’t know how to post it.
