Arrow Methods of catching wild lizards

I've had limited success with long sticks with a noose at the end(dog catcher snare?) to catch them. Unfortunately there aren't many lizards species in my area(5-lined skinks,6-lined race runners,glass lizards- and I have to travel at least 45min.), so I don't have much experience catching them.

Does anyone have any methods, or tricks to catch or make catching easier, especially for aboreal lizards???

For terrestrial species, I've heard of people using long nets as a fence to coral fast running species into a area or pitfall trap. Don't know if that works good or not.
