Anti-sub patrols are the most difficult in CW currently. You need the right tactic, or you go to bottom fast...
One error not to do is e.g. when you have the advantage being in the baffles of an enemy sub, then don't increase too much speed to catch up, because you won't see the torpedos fired at you until it's too late. I got sunk several times by doing so, not taking it seriously enough.

AI doesn't actually do countershot right now so you're pretty safe torpedoing someone as soon as you make them. Sometimes I even launch one speculatively as it makes the subs bolt.
That is, as soon as they get TIW you get your get out of jail free card.
