Not in The Chanel you wouldn't!
In the open sea that's very a sensible strategy, but in The Chanel it's suicidal.
For starters, once your presence is known, the game will vector all enemy units that are within 30 min. of you to your location - The Chanel is crawling with enemy warships and aircraft.
As mentioned, the water is shallow - It's also confined - so you can't really evade in any direction you want, and what ever direction is available to you may well result in your running into another ASW patrol.
Your approach is fine for open water. If you must use The Chanel during war time, just surviving the voyage is an accomplishment
