Definitely water in the reel. You can get away with fishing for a while, but it will feel like crap and annoy the piss out of you. As said before, call Q...tell him its urgent and he will take care of you. Also, tell him to PACK that thing with grease. They get a bit stiff, but seem to stay "waterproof" a bit longer. No seal is perfect, and the extra grease goes a long way.
