Any "prolonged" scenarios?

In Kara Sea I figured there was a greater chance of spotting the boomer in the middle so that is where I went. I'll catch him either going towards the edge, or catch him coming back towards the middle. He was pretty much right in my path when I picked him up (tho of course I FUBARed the activation range on my fish and he blew me out of the water).

Statistically speaking, the only reason you'd be less likely to catch him towards the edge is that if you have any of your sensor "cookie cutter" overlaping the edge of the search area, you're wasting it, by looking in places he can't be. Even then, though, it's really just a matter of time. You're still searching, even if less efficiently.

Personally, I just drive back and fourth so there's no overlap.
