I would have said 2 - 4.
Reason a max of 4 is (assuming you're not using a weighted fly too) is hydrolic pressure wants to force the fly to the surface. Think about what happens with just a regular line in moving water.
End of drift and it usually comes up to the surface; same thing with a long leader off a sink tip of any kind.
