Beginning an encounter while moving at 20 knots is the worst idea you can do. The enemy has a good idea where you are and maritime patrol aircraft are going to find you more easily.
The best way to mitigate this is to predict where the target is going and remain in place when you know they're gonna come to you.
Being at patrol speed (by holding right click) means you're starting at 10 knots, and it probably won't be as bad at the beginning as it would be if you were traveling at 20 knots to begin with.
