fish in the garden


City girl, now living in the country (by choice and design).  Neighbor has
a pond currently overrun with small bluegills.  He says "fish 'em out all
you want - more food for the larger fish", and it's easy to quickly fill a
large bucket with these 3-5 inch fish.  My question is, is this a good
source for fertilizer for my garden ?  We've all heard that the Indians
buried fish under their corn.  Can I dig a trench - line it with fish -
cover with soil and plant ?  I envision the raccoons having a big party. 
Any other caveats ?
