The sticking to the tool could be releasing the part too early. It can be a bit strange but if you release too soon the resin can almost grip the tool which seems a bit counter intuitive. The fact the resin is running off and fish-eyeing all over would suggest you have a good layer of Easy-Lease.
With wet-lay and mould release agents, you may be better off using a couple of layers of mould release wax on top of the Easy-Lease. This is because the wax will slightly reduce the slipperyness of the surface meaning the resin will fish-eye less giving you a better ability to get the first layer of resin down evenly. You might want to consider using a bristle roller to help consolidation.
I would vary the level of vacuum applied. Reduce it a little and see if that helps with the parts being wetted out. Too much vacuum can almost certainly cause problems with the part being too dry especially if it is happening in the top layers as you mentioned.
