We have been studying the hadron photoproduction reactions with a polarized photon beam and a forward spectrometer at the LEPS experiment. The photon beam is produced by the Compton scattering of the laser light with the high energy electrons at SPring-8. From our recent activities, the preliminary results for the {theta}+ search with a deuterium target have been reported. A new beamline project is proposed for further confirmation of the {theta}+ with larger acceptance detector, wider energy range, and with higher statistics.
