Default Clutch pedal clicks when released halfway

Okay, this problem started today. I was driving and when I was almost to my house. I noticed when I released my clutch, I heard it like click and I could feel it on my pedal when it did this. So I did it over and over and sure enough, right about half we released it would CLICK.

So I had my dad get under the hood while I pressed the clutch in and out to see if he can here where the clicking is coming from and visa versa. So we both found that it sounds like its coming from or near the slave cylinder. Even when it clicks you can feel the click on the Slave cylinder.

So we take the line off, and the bolts holding the slave cylinder. Take it apart and notice the grim inside of it, so we clean it well. Put all new fluid in the resevior and bleed it until all new fluid comes out.

I pump the clutch a bit, no noise at all. Start the car, take it for a ride, I even notice my clutch engages alot sooner than before, which was good for me. Well after like 10 minutes or so, it makes the click noise again when half released, and my clutch feels like it engages in the same spot as before.

So do you think I need a new Slave Cylinder or a rebuild kit for it? or any other ideas what the problem is, thanks!!
