Spotted shrimp (Sergia lucens) is most important fisheries product in Suruga Bay area. In this area, landing price of spotted shrimp inclined steeply, though the catch quantity was stable on and after 2003. In other words, the market condition of spotted shrimp fishery was obviously improved.In this study, we tried to elucidate the main factor of inclining of spotted shrimp price during this period, from the 2 viewpoints ---- "technological improvements on this fishery", and "finding a new market condition". Therefore, 3 points（v.i.）about spotted shrimp fishery in this area were elucidated.1．After 2002, various kinds of innovation for the improvement of freshness and quality advanced in this fishery.2．With the improvement of freshness and quality on spotted shrimp, the use as dried shrimp reduced remarkably, and the use as "Kamaage" (freezing boiled shrimp) and "Fresh product" (freezing freshshrimp) greatly enlarged.3．The demand for Kamaage and fresh Product was excellent and let the market size spread in the whole country.The price of spotted shrimp greatly rose as a factor with above-mentioned 3 points.
