Transmission Lines attached to the tops of poles

I have ArcScene 10.2

I have my TIN.
I have transmission poles which I adjusted to have a base on the TIN surface, I extruded them to their height.  They come across as nice little cylinders.

Now I have my transmission line.  I can give it the base of the TIN but cannot figure out how to make them drawn on the tops of the poles.

When I extrude them to 5 feet less than the poles it makes a Wall so to speak, and it follows the TIN. 

They are in a geometric network.  However, not in a geometric network with the poles.  Is that a key?

I exported them to a featuredataset that has a Z coordinate system.  I managed to display the transmission lines as a line and at the height I want, but in between the poles it still follows the TIN
