Where do you hunt for those big Catches?

[Able72]

So, I'm sure I'm not the only one who has a thing for making the big catches. We're talking about single ships with a GRT over 20k (30k ideally) So, where do you hunt for your big fish?

The biggest I've bagged so far is a 31k GRT Revenge Class Battleship. Got him in BE59.

So, where do you find your big fish?

There is a Liner route across the Atlantic that approaches the southern tip of Ireland and enters the Bristol Channel. If you can find that you'll be tons in, but broadcasting it's exact co -ordinates would IMO be a game killer.

The thrill of the kill is in the hunt http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif

AM36

I always loiter there for a couple of days on the way out, and if I have any eels left, also on the way back

seen the following big ones there....

Revenge BB
Illustrious CV
Hood BC
Renown BC
Nelson BB

haven't managed to sink all those yet, but seen them thunder by at high speed
oh, and if all else fails, there's always the Med :up:

Besides the obvious :arrgh!: there's several ports that have large targets frequently/permanently parked there. Just have to start going raiding to find out which ones have what in them. Some don't have a massive ships, but can have a lot of 10,000 ton ships that you can still make a large haul out of. Early in the war seems the best time to find capital ships lying around everywhere, once found two Hoods inside Liverpool :up:

Yup, those liners at high speed are hard to catch ;)

I'll be heading there after i've completed the patrol of my assigned grid.

Hunting huntig hunting.

From Iceland where you will find a REVENGE in a convoy to Gibraltar where you may find an unescorted KGV. Then to Freetown for a NELSON and some LINERS from Brazil.

Don't expect everything in front of your tubes!

Hunting hunting hunting

while they are at anchor :yep: :arrgh!:

The Sicily Channel in the Med. I've bagged the Aquitania twice - over 45k tons and only two eels (guess I didn't do the job right the first time. They managed to refloat her from over 1000m!)

There are plenty of large ships in the Med and the Sicily Channel is ideal for ambushing them. If it's under 5k tons, I usually let them go as there will be another one in a couple of days.

Half the find of hunting the big catches is finding them :up:
