You'll get radio reports giving you location spotted{long/Lat} but seems it's more going into 43 that they are more common. Not a lot of coastal traffic, cept more important bases usually have a DD or escort roaming the area tho you may run into a junk or such on odd occasions. I remember once I had a fishing boat in the Bungo and I got a radar contact fast coming, turned out to be a carrier and a few escorts. It was night and I guess the fishing boat saw me cuz the escorts peeled off and came that way fast, so I took off. It worked out good cuz by the time the escorts started hunting I was closing in on the lone carrier, but it was going so fast and I had just 6 forward left and had to shoot at like 6000 yards and shot a spread of 4. I got 2 hits and the carrier went dead on the water. I stayed on the surface and came around the other side about 4000 yards and fired my last two and planned to high tail it out before the escorts returned. One hit and out of nowhere ..BAM...the last one was a circle runner and hit me. The carrier registered sunk and a few seconds after I lost my sub.
