I m using 2 criteria myself, weather and AoB. Nice weather and flat AoB = magnetic. Anything else = impact or no shoot.
Well, one thing to bear in mind, is that it's not "magnetic vs. impact". The torps are always impact fuzed; the question, is whether or not to enable the magnetic exploder.

Magnetics are less reliable in the early years, but do allow you to attack with AOB > 40 degrees with a decent chance of success.
