And if you ARE detected submerged try to keep your sub facing to or away from the pursuer,this has the effect of narrowing the sub's acoustic profile.If you were beam on (side on) to the pursuer you would have a broader profile and ASDIC would have a larger area to hit ,increasing the reflection strength.
And go as deep as you possibly can without taking damage.I have reached depths of 220m in a VIIC before,and this makes it very hard for enemy sonar to detect you.
