I just ran a patrol using the .exe mod recently discussed here, and discovered some interesting patterns:

[SPOILER WARNING]

There's a crapload of single merchants who enter and exit the Irish Sea, going either ENE or WSW south of Ireland.

There's very few convoys which take the "southern" of the two North Atlantic routes you see on the foldout map.

And weirdly enough of all, there's a constant stream of ships which ply the Baffin Sea (icebreakers I guess).

Personally I'd like to see a campaign mod which simultaneously cuts down greatly on the amount of traffic out there down to more historical levels, but also occasionally provides, via other subs (the "circle" contacts) and intel (which varied greatly on the German side throughout the war), the locations of convoys.
