I'm using an environmental mod with very dark nights (as in RL life), and it's very difficult, if not impossible, to detect ships with binocculars or UZO. So, i alternate surface and underwater navigation. Thus, i'm able to detect ships with the hydrophone. And normally, before the destroyers are equipped with radar, you should see the enemy before it sees you.

I LOVE bad weather ! Certainly, your visibility is reduced, but there are two major advantages to it : when you are submerged, destroyers are very less able to detect you, and at surface, if you are using Stiebler patch, the ennemi's speed is reduced, allowing you to go faster than a convoy and escaping more easily if you have been detected.
