NSW Fisheries is investigating reports of fish deaths in the Menindee Weir pool in the Darling River.

Around 30 golden perch were found dead by locals on the weekend.

The NSW Government says it’s been advised oxygen levels are at a good level, and a lack of oxygen is not believed to be a contributing factor.

There have been several mass fish deaths in the river over the last few years.

Water NSW says flows from Lake Menindee will remain at fifty megalitres a day.
