Funny how calm you are about it while trying to figure it out. Happened to me some days ago. Since it’s Easter, I wasn’t able to go to the tackle shop asking for help. But the shop owner told me he knows what happened when I sent him a PM. Hopefully he will fix it for me. Just bought that reel, so was very surprised it only lasted 3 times on the water to have an issue. Solid drag system on lamson reels was the reason why I got the Remix HD 3 pack reel.
Same thing happened to me this weekend but unfortunately it popped off in fast water and it was to dangerous to go after it I pulled my fly line till it broke off the backing it was crazy good thing you caught it before it fell in
I had a similar problem with my lambson as well. I took the bearing out, cleaned it off real well put it back together. I havent any issues since. I still don't know what caused the problem.

Sorry to hear that, I'm sure Lamson sells replacement parts. I still like the reel though.

This is my second time, good thing is no special tools required to fix it.
