Clutch problem?

Hey so today I went adventuring in my car a bit and found some fun mud. After some fun times in the mud it was time to leave. I was mobbing away pretty fast and went to do a quick shift from 1st to 2nd and the clutch stuck to the floor. I pulled over cuz it didnt come back up. I pulled it up with my hand just fine and tentatively started driving again. The clutch now feels a little stiffer (it springs back faster/harder). I was able to drive home the rest of the way fine and tried some other quick shifts to see if i could recreate the issue but couldn't. I read up on this a bit and other people who were having this problem seemed to have the problem be recurring. I think I will bleed to clutch fluid and replace cuz that seemed to be a popular thing to do with this problem. Any other suggestions? People who have had this problem did you need to do anything else?

Also I'm on the original clutch at about 115k miles and its starting to slip when accelerating quickly in 4th and 5th gears so I'm going to have to replace it soonish anyways.

Thanks,
Scott

Clutch bleed and if that doesn't fix it, start looking at components like slave cylinder.
