Go below the thermal layer ahead of the convoy. All stop. Once the lead DD passes over head, go to periscope depth. You are probably like me and just must have the periscope all the time looking over the targets. This is what gets you and me spotted. Learn to depend on your sonar so you can stay down and out of sight of the lead DD. Once his butt has passed get ready to do some fast solutions. Usually I just ping the target for range and make best estimate on speed....normally you are so close and there is just a huge wall of ships in front of your tubes that you will hit something!
