How to attack enemy sub underwater

Ahoi from Poland

I have (prodably a newbie and stupid) question, but... I started playing SH3. I`m a quick learner, so I add more realism after every patrol.

After chasing and meeting a convoy, I started to examine it very close. I noticed that the whole convoy was escorted only by 3 small destroyers, which I managed to sink with my kamikaze method (let them get very close at bearing 000 and hit them with a few T1 right at their front).

After sinking the escort, I started shooting with my deck gun. Everything went well, but then...a small enemy S-1 submarine appeared. At first, I was able to identify the target, but then it submerged a bit, leaving the tower still visible, The watchmen didn`t see anything, even from close distance. I tried to hit it with deck gun, flak - no effect. Using UZO (to know the distance) or the attack periscope didn`t help me also.

Is there any method to sink a sub, which is obviously visible from the surface?
