G'day Kristy,
Herping is something that is learned through trial and error - there are no big amazing tips that anyone can give you that will make herping easy. Without getting too complicated, to have the best success when herping, you need to understand the animals you are looking for...when are they active, what makes them active, where do they hide when inactive etc...
In general, you want to keep an eye out for odd shapes if you are driving, and movement...keep an eye on the shoulder of the road. For species such as dragons you will normally notice them basking on top of something in full sunlight....sometimes they won't be distinct but their body shape is noticeable.
Good luck!
