Having a hard time convoy hunting in poor weather.

Yes Cueball, I know how how you feel, weeks of virtually nothing then a golden opportunity presents itself and the weather turns against you

.
In those conditions I would normally shadow the convoy hoping the weather improves before it got to safety. Or as a last resort, you could infiltrate the convoy submerged, marking out the lanes by the hydrophone, ready the tubes for a snap shot, and take out whatever presents itself. Ok you can't pick your target, but better than nothing, and the evasion will be a bit easier in that weather. It all depends on the philosophy of your current Kaleun.

Cue Ball,

Yes, it is fruistrating! This can go on for weeks at a time. You don't mention the date. After 1940, the enemy has radar, to mess you up even further.
