I usually plot a zig-zag course through the heavy traffic areas, and in the time of the war that you're at, it usually involves the eastern area off England (until the area is mined, which occurs in the GWX3 mod) then going thru the passage north of scapa flow, then back down thru the heavy shipping areas to the west of England/Ireland. There will be times where you won't run into any contacts for a few days, that's fairly normal.
thanks for the tips marioh!

My plan for my next patrol was to head off the east coast of jolly ole' England in the area's of BF 52 and 55. Do you have any suggestions other than the above, since that area is much shallower water, if I remember correctly? I did a pre-war patrol in that vicinity.
