Jesse Lance Robbins is a writer, conservationist, and angler living near the confluence of the McKenzie and Willamette Rivers in Springfield, Oregon. Born and raised in rural, Midcoast Maine, he grew up in a family of outdoors-lovers, with a river and a forest behind the house. Eventually moving west, he worked as a fly fishing guide, fly casting instructor, and for over a decade worked for Sage, Redington, RIO Products, and Fly Water Travel. Along the way, stories—read, heard, and told—have consumed and fueled him. Jesse’s writing aims to inspire inquiry of the relationships that arise while on the water and out of doors, and has been featured in The Drake Magazine, The Flyfish Journal, Swing the Fly, Modern Huntsman, TROUT, and Atlantic Salmon Journal, as well as online. Currently, Jesse is the Development Officer at WaterWatch of Oregon, a river conservation nonprofit; is the Producer at Writers on the Fly, an in-person fly fishing literary reading series; and is President of the Redsides Chapter of Trout Unlimited.
