I'm not actually worried about lone escorts at any point in time. Having played the game for a couple years now I've discovered a convoy with a single escort means the escort never runs ahead to check for subs. I can thus sit off the port or starboard sides of the convoy and launch torps at every ship and I more often then not at least hit the escort. It's convoys with two or more I worry about.
