As someone who has been doing this for years they will be perfectly fine even after a few weeks. Hell, I’ve had some I forgot about for almost a year and they were still fine-lacking in flavor but edible.

Watch out for freezer burn. It could turn it nasty after a couple of weeks

Yhea that’s fine.
when ice fishing and it’s to cold to gut and they freeze before i get home i just gut them when they defrosting it’s perfectly safe just the sooner the beter after pulling it from the freezer. Most store bought wild fish gets frozen gut in
