I’ve got a few guys at work interested in trapping as a hobby after seeing some of the fun I’ve had over the years. But they throw their catches in a freezer and sell in the round, so, far from die hards, but I try to keep encouraging them. One guy is 40 with a teenager son that runs them with him and I play up the trappers know more woodsmanship than any other outdoorsman card with them since the son is big into hunting too. The other guy is 26 and has had some luck trapping so hopefully will stick with it. It’s a lot of work though and guys burn out fairly easy sometimes.
