The large biting flies are a crazy phenomenon. They'll actually chase you, persistently. And they're HUGE. I was attacked by one a couple of years ago on Lake Michigan, and it just wouldn't leave me alone! I was diving, splashing it with water, running on the beach (it could fly about as fast as I could run) and no luck. I finally had to swat the vile beast.
