The British Channel

i am new to the game and am on my 5th patrol in my first try at a career. Alot of my patrols take me south west of Britains shores so I head through the channel alot. It has been some good fun so far. Lots of traffic and nice targets, but it is so shallow that if a destroyer gets a sniff of you it can be hard to avoid him. In the later game is the Channel something you should avoid? Seems as time goes on there are more and more destoyers there and as soon as you attack something the repsonse times of the PB's, aircraft or destoryers is very quick. Is it safer to go around Scotland? Or should I just suck it up and enjoy the fun and challenge that attacking ships in the Channel brings?

Thanks
