Back in the same trap, which one finds puzzling (7)

I believe the answer is:

enigmas

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one finds puzzling' is the definition.
I know that 'puzzling' relates to this answer.

'back in the same trap' is the wordplay.
'back' is a reversal indicator.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'trap' becomes 'gin' (gin trap is a kind of animal trap).
'same' enclosing 'gin' is 'samgine'.
'samgine' back-to-front is 'ENIGMAS'.

'which' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
