Right front break locks up

Anybody else have this problem? After it rains or if it's been damp when my truck has been sitting for say overnight or while I'm at work when I take off driving & go to stop the right front break will lock up. It's done this so often I've flatspotted my right front tire. After I stop (using light pressure on the break) a few times it dries up or if I use light pressure on the break while driving a few hundred feet it dries up & does OK. I've checked the pads & they're OK but I have got to get new tires soon (especially a right front) & I need to get this fixed. My brother-in-law has a 97 also & his does this too, but he doesn't drive his daily so it doesn't happen as often. Any help will be appreciated. thank you. Sorry I guess I outta mention I have a 97 F-150.

My 97 F150 Lariat did the same. New brake pads or rotors over the years did not solve the issue. I just lived with it.
