Don't lie waiting a convoy, it might change its course before coming to you. Go towards it !

The same thing when targeting a ship: even if she is coming towards you, always try to close distance, things that now are favourable might change in few minutes. The ship can alter course, etc.

(This is a thing I learnt from the U-Boot commander's manual).

Anyway your decision not to pursue the convoy in shallower waters was very wise, so you will live to meet another convoy!
