Doc, I do all the time. My favorite style of fishing.
I tie on a straight piece of mono/fluoro right on my floating line. It can be 10' to 30' long as this weekend proved.
I use break away indi with chironomids or nymphs attached. No casting on these as it just isn't going to happen. I am in my pontoon and I do have sonar to tell me how deep it is.
When fishing from a shore, I will use a 6' Furled leader and 3' to 4' of fluoro attached then fly. It is a ROLL CAST however. Much easier than trying to false cast flies and an indicator.
Here you can see the deep nymphing and indicator in action:
