Tips for evading corvettes/DDs - Page 2

I'm still new to the game, and one frustrating thing I've encountered is having a goddamn corvette/DD hounding me constantly. I'm in a Type VIIB right now, and usually if I see a ship charging me I'll try for a shot down his throat within 1000m then crash dive and try to hide. If I hit him typically he's either at the bottom already or crippled enough for me to make a run for it, but more often than not I'll miss because he turns and then it is a tedious matter of waiting him out while creeping along at 3 knots 100 meters down.

Is it simply a matter of patience? What really sucks is when there are multiple ships looking for me. I'm in 1941 right now, and I know it is just going to get worse as time passes in the game.
