The agency is taking the first steps in purchasing Vail Lake, one of the finest bass fisheries in Southern California Southern California, also colloquially known as SoCal, is the southern portion of the U.S. state of California. Centered on the cities of Los Angeles and San Diego, Southern California is home to nearly 24 million people and is the nation's second most populated region, and potentially a superb upland bird and waterfowl hunting area.

In 1999 the U.S. government, in accordance with the U.S. ,'' he said. ``Hunting and fishing have never been shown to be in conflict with resource protection, and sportsmen have been the shakers and movers behind all major conservation efforts in this country.''
