I have Thule racks going from side to side. In front a pair of ski racks hold the rods down. In back I have 1/2 clear plastic, 8" x 48"s bolted onto the rear one inch Thulke piping. Onto that I bolted 12 pieces of PVC pipes that measure twelve inches by two inches. These are more or less equi-distant across the 48' length of rack. Holds twelve rods. Certainly more than what your needs are, but the way I built it, the rack will last and last.
