I normally do not bother unless there is next to no chance of missing. If I have the jump on him, I have found that using the slowest torpedo speed setting has the better chance of hitting because the torpedo creates less noise and wake in the water. I have observed this in 3-5. If he spots you, all you can do is either turn directly into or away from him and when he chases you, cut loose with a point-blank torpedo at 800m. Even if he tries to evade, all he does is present a broader target for the torpedo.
