The true way of evading depth charges is to avoid them all together and not be in that situation.

Hence my extensive use of BOLD just after I have attacked and the first eel hits. I then either slip away unnoticed really deep at 1kts making sure the BOLD is between my stern and the convoy and escorts, or, if it is a dark night and they have not spotted me, I go flank speed in the opposite direction surfaced, but also after launching BOLD.
