I find that if the fish can't swim, they don't do too well.
A big circular well they can do laps around should help.
The on board wells are too small or too square for 8 -12 inch bait.
Overcrowding spoils moral also.

May fortune favor the foolish....

What type of livewell is it? I throw some ice in mine to cool the baits down a little, not alot of ice mind you. I also turned mine into a recirculating well, and since doing that my baits are doing much better. Also remove or use any baits that are looking a little slow

Mack's tend to die real quick even with good circulation. Don't know exactly why. Maybe stressed out easy?

macks require a large round tank. they beat themselves to death in a square one.
