Here's some of my "Honey Holes" (Note: I use the IUB 1.03 mod):

AM13, AM17, AM19 = Great convoy lanes NW of Ireland.

BF13, BF15, BF17, BF16, BF19 = Lots of single merchant shipping and the occasional convoy, but has shallow waters and lots of aircraft and single patrolling DDs.

CG94 = My personal favorite until mid-1943 (aircraft attacks gets nasty after mid-1943). I usually run out of torpedoes and deck gun ammunition after 5 days on station. You can sometimes get the occasional Task Force that comes out of the Scappa Flow area on their way to Alexandria.. and they have to get past you first! I normally rack up 55,000-125,000 tons per patrol in CG94.

ED98= From December 1941 until mid-1943. Tanker alley! Lots of single T3 or T2 tankers. Some unescorted tanker convoys comes in and out of the Port of Spain area.
