I have had many guys row up to me on the lake during a chironomid hatch. They are fishings leeches, dragons, mayflys etc. And ask what the heck im using.

Chironomid fishing is a huge part of fly fishing. Match the hatch/depth and you will not be able to keep them off your line.

Iv been to a few Brian Chan, Phil Rowley seminars. One was even on a lake back home and I got to fish with Brian. Learned ALOT about Chironomids.

I have never heard anyone ever say chironomid fishing is not flyfishing lol
