New Smyrna Beach - Volusia, FL Fishing Report on 20th Jun, 2025 - 2

Offshore fishing out of New Smyrna Beach has been solid this week, with a variety of species keeping rods bent and coolers full. Anglers heading 15–30 miles out are finding steady action on the reefs and ledges, especially around the 70–100 foot range.

King mackerel are showing up in good numbers and have been hammering live baits on the troll. If you're running planers or downriggers, expect multiple hookups throughout the day. Mahi-mahi are also making appearances, particularly around weedlines and floating debris—trolling ballyhoo has been a consistent producer. A few sailfish have even surprised lucky crews.

Bottom fishing has been productive too. Triggerfish, vermilion snapper, and amberjack are biting well over structure. Live pinfish and squid are working great, and the red snapper bite is hot—though remember, regulations still apply depending on the season. Cobia have also been cruising the reefs and following rays, so keep a pitch rod ready.

The weather has been cooperative with light winds and clean water pushing in, making now a great time to get offshore. Whether you’re trolling or dropping deep, New Smyrna Beach is delivering the kind of action offshore anglers look forward to.
