    Authorities are still working to get to the bottom of what killed 150 fish in a creek near Queenstown


    Otago Regional Council is continuing to ask for information into the mysterious deaths of the brown trout and one native galaxiid .

    The fish were found dead in Horne Creek last month.

    Council compliance manager Tami Sargeant says water test results could possibly come back later this week.
