Help - my fishing reel is making a grinding sound

Got my Shimano baitcaster wet last weekend and now whenever I cast it makes this grinding noise. Pulled the spool out but everything looks clean. Anyone dealt with this before? Don't want to send it in if I can fix it myself.

Salt water reel maintenance is rough. I'd pull the whole thing apart and inspect the bearings - might need replacing if the grinding keeps happening. Better to fix it now than lose it mid cast.
