What class are you playing with? Because the subs and OH Perry have Auto TMA crew that do a descent job at figuring out where the thing is. PROVIDED they have the propper bearing lines to work with:

Maker sure your sonar is tracking something.
Then go to the TMA station, and activate Autocrew (a tab in the corner).
Give them some time (i.e. 10 minutes),
make a turn so your speed across the line of sound changes significantly, (wait until the towed array settled behind you)
then wait some more time for usefull bearing lines to show up
then check what they have done.

Yeah, I know, it's not instant. But they are not qualified to be psychic, you know. (Though it seems they sometimes are.)
