Assuming you have a type 7 or better, go to the northwest and southwest entrance to the Irish Sea (between England and Ireland) and keep an eye out for contact reports on the map. Or the entrances of Gibraltar, but that's a bit further along.

A simple search of "hunting grounds" here on the forum found this thread.

The question comes up about every 4 months, so if you search, you will find.

BF17 / 18. In 1940 I'm usually getting 2-3 single ships a day consisting of medium merchants up to tankers and liners. Great opportunity to use up that deck gun ammo in good weather. Quite a few destroyer patrols too though so try not to stray too far into the shallower water.
