Default Clutch Sticking! Anyone?

Now before anyone says anything about "search or master/slave cylinder" hear me out folks.

My car is '05 base model with 56k miles on it and it's already had the clutch-sticking-half-way issue during this summer when it had 50k miles. Naturally I searched and problem seems to be either slave or master clutch cylinder. So I figure I'll get new master/slave cylinder in and while I'm at it I'll add in a SS clutch line, do a flush and put Motul fluid in, and ACT 6 puck pressure plate in their. Everything was OK ... until tonight. The weather wasn't even hot and it started to stick half way in every gear again. Still able to engage/disengage into gears though. Went back to search and now it seems that I need to flush the fluid out of the system.

I plan to take my car into a shop tomorrow but until then I'd really appreciate any feedback I get.

Found out what it was. Their was a leak from the clutch line so it looks like I need to replace the line, get new fluids in the reservoir and in master cylinder.
I know some of you maybe thinking "you didn't look in the reservoir?". I did but I never actually opened it. So it looked like their was fluid in it but really it was just stained.
