I don't understand the 6ft, I use them when the situation requires, I run them on short rods 5-5.5ft rods and close in behind the boat sometimes. There could be other reasons he needed the height. I use rod extenders on the side of the boat to get the lines away from each other but I use the rod extenders all the time.
