Oh, would you mind providing grid numbers to where exactly these hotspots are?

No problem, I'll get it next time I play (it's in the ED grid- looks like my next patrol is to EC, so Ill be right close to there again- Panama Canal maybe?). Unless someone knows where I can find a grid map online, then I'll be happy to get the exact reference number right away. But it is an easy geographical feature to find- it is the North end of the Trinidad Bay entrance, near Port-of-Spain.

I may have said this before, but the map that comes with GWX, showing convoy and patrol routes, is an absolute goldmine! Personally, that map has done me a TON of good in finding busy shipping lanes. IIRC, well before my time, there was a website that allowed Kaleuns to report their contacts. All that info was summed, and a map like this one (this very one?) was generated. In any case, I have yet to be seriously led astray by this map. And you'll notice that Port-of-Spain and San Fernando are right smack in the middle of individual AND convoy shipping lanes. The convoy lanes appear to ship out of the Southern entrance to Trinidad Bay, but I had no success waiting off that southeastern entrance for several days. The northern entrance on the other hand, was just silly busy.
