It depends on lots of things. I think in this game there is a random factor built in because I have hit large cargoes that have split in two from 1 fish, but I've also had the same type ship require 5 fish and a deck gun.
Just last night, I took out a large tanker with one shot, but the tramp steamer following took three.
just be patient, I have read stories from guys who have used up all their fish on 1 ship and it still didn't go under
