- FishHack brings the fun an excitement of the "Big Mouth Billy Bass" (as seen on T.V.)
- to the Macintosh. It is a part hardware, part software hack. You need to purchase
- the follow hardware:
-
- One "Big Mouth Billy Bass" from your local store or:
- http://www.absolutebigmouthbillybass.com
-
- Radio Shack:
- 42-2387A 6-ft Shielded Audio Cable
- 278-1157B 24" Jumper Leads with mini alligator clips in 4 assorted colors
- 23-881 C size alkaline Enercall batteries (8)
-
-
- WARNING: This procedure could damage or void the warranty of your machine. I am not a
- hardware engineer, I only play one on T.V. If you break something it's your fault, not
- mine.
-
-
- The operation:
- Open the back of the fish's case, find the light sensor near the bottom of the
- case with the green wires attached to it. Extract the light sensor with pliers.
- Tape over the top of the tube so light can't get in. Attack alligator clips to
- the sensor's leads and run them out the bottom of the case where there are gaps.
- Close the case leaving the light sensor inside.
-
- Plug the audio cable into the audio out on your machine, and attach the other ends
- of the alligator clips to the audio cable. One to the tip and one to the ring farthest
- from.
-
-
- Now when your machine beeps the bass will sing!
