Its July 1940 (GWX 2.0), and I am on my maiden voyage in U-122, a new IXB boat. In U-49, my VIIB, I spent almost all of my time around Great Britain and Norway, but now I am looking to take a trip further out and find some new fishing holes.
On the stock SHIII map, three merchant routes converge at the Canary Islands. Does anyone have any experience to share about this area? Based on the map, fishing should be good, but I have found that the actual routes on the map are often off a bit.
The other area that looks interesting is the coast of Canada, maybe not far off of Halifax. I figured I could slip down and see New York while I am there, before the US gets into the war. (I can surface outside lower Manhattan and not get killed you know, maybe cast a line and take the men down to West 42nd Street for some R&R Then come back in a year or so for Operation Drumbeat!). However, if the fishing off the Canadian coast isnt good, there is no point in making the two-week long trek. Any recommendations regarding the Canadian coast?
Thanks in advance!
