To attack a flower, or not?

Late 1940, I am a few 100 miles off the Azores, and ran into a big convoy with only 1 flower escort up front. I'm in a type VIIB. Seas are the calmest I've ever seen in this game. Wind is 0, completely flat. Perfect for deck gun... except for that flower.

So I'm thinking, torpedo the flower from periscope depth as the convoy approaches. 180 rounds of rounds plus the torps I have left for the convoy if I get him.

Or, just sneak up, pick a ship off. Hide. Go past the convoy. Reacquire. Repeat.
