The heavy rain fog weather has a catch 22. If you can see him he is under 300 meters. If you can shoot him, you can't see him.

I have done this succesfully but it is a challenge to say the least hence it can be rewarding, difficulty wise.

My method is to only use a reported ship and by placing his course I put my boat directly in his path. When I pick up the sound I position my boat so he is at 0 degrees.
By tracking how much he varies I can guess a course. I place my boat slightly off that course at a 90% angle. I not only listen I ask for updates so I can know when he goes from long range to medium and then short. At a short rangeupdate I check his course and move my boat so I will be too close but sure to see him.
If I did it right he should appear and I hit emergancy reverse and hope I can back far enough to make a shot. As he is nearing going out of view I check the angle to make sure the fish will hit flat and fire.
(I play 100%)
Often I can not get far enough away to fire at a completely flat zero angle so I allow him to pass and make a 20 or 30% shot in front of his bow so it will hit flat.
I have done this many times and it is not too hard if the long range guess on course is accurate. Doing all this and getting it right only to have a hospital ship appear is a reminder of Murphy's involvement in SH3.
