In Miyagi Prefecture, the catch of fish species such as Pacific saury, salmon, and trout, which have been the main catches, has been low. Fish produced in western Japan is increasing, especially, Hairtail and Crimson sea bream. Local markets and processors are stepping up their efforts to use these fish species as new products. The number of fish species that were previously rarely caught in nets has increased in the Sanriku region. The catch of all fish, which has supported the local economy so far, is not good.
