I like to patrol around the western approaches durring the day at periscope depth going ahead slow maybe 3-4 knots. You'll pick up a lot of traffic this way as you can hear better than you can see most of the time with a good officer. I like having a high ranking guy in there trained to use the equipment. WIth the green bar nearly all the way across you'll pick up contacts at very long range! Dont forget to upgrade your hydrophones early on too, 300 renown very well spent!
