My Rear Brakes Started Smoking When Towing

I was towing my boat downhill....not an extremely steep grade but it was downhill. I could say I was riding the brakes without noticing. This happens from time to time. When I pulled over it seems like my brake pedal went further down to the floor, but everything returned to normal. I have not lost any break fluid.

Pull it off and clean/lube the pins. That should fix the issue it it isn't seized which it doesn't sound like it is so it goes back to normal.

Ended up getting a new caliper...can risk with the amount of towing I do....thanks
