Go for contact detonation rather than magnetic and try to get them to strike at 90 degrees to the side of the ship, to avoid a dud from a glancing blow. Make sure it's a worthy target though if you chuck that many fish at it.

Well, I tried the opposite thing on depth settings, I was shooting at at Modern Freighter, and set the eels to run at 15 ft, thinking that they would avoid the worst of the waves by running below them, sadly it seems they all ran TOO deep, as I saw 2 of them run right under their target.

So next time I should shadow and wait for better eel weather?
