Found my first mine!

And lived to tell the tale!!

Destroyed my hydrophones, deck gun, both scopes, and forward batteries, but managed to limp home on the surface from the Canadian coast. I was afraid to dive!

Turns out hull integrity was still at 97.5%! Better safe than sunk.

Not quite sure a mine is something I looked forward too before hitting one... same with being attacked by a hedgehog.
