I've herped in N. Fla and S. Ga for over 30 years. The parks are nice and senic, but for the most part, any herps you see will be the most common, (anoles, skinks, racers, waters. etc.) with exception of course. Your best bet if you want to see corns, kings, scarlet kings, canebrakes and EDB's is to find the agriculture areas. Look for pump houses, barns, and tree lines between fields. These are usually good tin areas. Springtime is excellent for flipping tin. Watch, the weather. if you catch it prior to an approaching cold front, even during the passage in the rain, the herps will be up on the surface under tin, boards etc. If the front has passed and you have low humidity and high pressure, the luck won't be as good.
I live and work in Tx these days and long for the good ole' days in Fla. Good luck and post how you did.
