I haven't had much luck putting them on hands.

I've had trouble reading bad players. Good players, though, play well, and unless they're excellent players, they play predictably. Therefore, if you know what they know in terms of game theory, their plays become pretty transparent. Additionally, with those guys, you make your bets in such a manner as to clearly communicate to them what your hand is, and have some idea of how they're going to react to that.

It comes with time.

Apparently if you pay attention to the game you learn how the fish play too, but... well... I've always been a big fan of multitabling so I don't have a damn clue. I just know that they call a lot with "surprise" holdings.
