You probably want more like a 12 foot leader minimum for chironomids. You can adjust a quick released indicator to practically any depth and be effective from shore. If you're fishing out of a boat, you'll want 15' leader minimum and the same indicator.

Leader should consist of 10 feet of straight 8lb bulk fluorocarbon line attached to a tiny swivel, then 2 feet of 4x fly tippet to your fly. Preferably fluoro.
