Couple tricks that i have use to help with that:
1) get some Tulle fabric and make little roe sacs like salmon fisherman use, that works good, its kinda like soft window screen material. then tie that to the hook.
2) i used to use golf ball rubberbands, find some older Titleist Golf balls that are made of rubber bands for the inside and wrap some of those around the liver. ofcourse if you dont know what kind of golf ball to look for, your gonna be cutting alot of golf balls open, but once you find one, it will last you a while. I learned that little nugget fishing in Tulsa.
It really helps to keep the liver as close to freezing as you can get it while fishing. it keeps a firmer texture and doesnt turn to mush in your hand and flies off the hook upon cast.
