Fly Fishing Helps Star Cricketer Return to Game

“It was a fly fishing trip to New Zealand this winter ‘with a close family friend’ that gave Tait the sense of well being and clean slate he needed to embark on a comeback to international cricket. ‘We went to the South Island. It was fly fishing during the day, cook the fish at night, have a few beers and go to bed. It was great,’ he said.” That’s 25-year-old cricket phenom Shaun Tait talking about how fly fishing helped him overcome the stress of constant travel and media attention and return to the sport.
