I also only use the whisker pole for wing and wing. You can be creative with configuring a barber hauler using various things on board.

I only get the pole out to go wing and wing.

I was thinking of a snatch block on the toe rail and a line snap shackled to the clew attachment point to accomplish this. However, I have also seen people using their whisker pole on the leeward side to hold the genoa clew outboard and up. Has anyone compared these options? The pole seems more of a hassle, but should be more effective.
