Oh, I have an even better "fish" story.

Was cruising surfaced, daylight, in moderate seas when sonar announced a warship sound contact off the port beam which I thought was stange since there was no radar target in that direction. Went to battlestations, ahead flank and 90 degrees to port and was shocked to see a sub symbol show up on the map. Deck gun crew opened up at max range and the third round hit the Jap sub in the conning tower and down she went. I thought maybe she had crash dived but the sunken ship marker showed and there was credit in the Captains log.

Unfortunately, I saved the game ( 6th patrol of a carreer) and when trying to open it later, it CTD. Fortunately, I have a screen shot of the patrol log but had to start the whole patrol over from the autosave.
