We have them here in MA, from late summer through much of the winter. Most are not the #18/#20 Baetis, but rather the #24.#28 Pseudos.

Jeremy,
Sometimes it's hard to beat a simple but effective classic.

I tie a realistic mayfly for flat water. Scroll to the bottom of this post ---> http://www.flyfishfood.com/2013/03/the-spring-trout-primer.html

This is a good pattern...but I'm also going to suggest that you try swapping out the CDC with snowshoe rabbit foot fibers. (cut the wing shorter). It will refloat after one or two false casts, unlike CDC. It's my go to BWO pattern....I also tie it as an emerger, with the tail being a few sparse fibers of olive antron or Z-lon. If you tie them small (22-26) just use olive thread for the body.
