Until late 1940, anyway, I make it a point to go through the Hebrides Strait on the way out (and on the way back if I have fish). If I have halfway decent hunting weather, I nearly always bag 10-20k tons, sometimes with deck gun alone.

You need to keep a good eye out for planes of course, and there is the usual lot of torpedo boats and ASW trawlers out there, but if you keep it low and slow, they won't notice you.

Just keep an eye on depth under keel.... it really can vary in the strait, and quickly.

I, too, am growing to love 250 west of Gibraltar. On last patrol, at one point, I had an ore carrier, a large merchant and a passenger cargo all sinking within 10km of each other. Happy time, indeed!
