I did it sometimes in fog (when I can see ships only from 500-600 meters and they can't see me at all) or in 39 year on unescorted convoy. Else they just find you with flares and spotlights.
When normally, as I read, merchant ships didn't have spotlights and flares, so only escort could try to find u-boat on surface.
