Would think it'd be doable to have it randomized to say... 1 or 2 out of 10 maybe even a 3 outta 10, ratio... but... wouldn't go any higher than... 4 outta 10.

That way, it keeps it random on when you'd see it occur.

I really am thinking about methods to include fishing activities for the trawlers & small boats in SH3/4. Whaling (and whales escaping) could be included; it's just an issue with time - the whole concept is one of the "reach goals" for Wolves of the Kaiser and any WW2 Atlantic mods I do later. The U-Boat HAHD crew was going to include lots of sea life fully animated, and posted beautiful screenshots of animated fish & crabs, but unfortunately I think that mod group has disbanded.

The whole idea's not entirely out of place; in WW2 a German raider sneaked up on a whaling fleet once and captured the entire group of ships as they were catching whales - including a gigantic whale factory ship. Would make for an interesting U-Boat encounter.
