clutch slave cyliner going?

ive been noticing in the past three days that if i start up the truck for the first time in any given day, the transmission doesent want to go into gear and the clutch pedal almost goes to the floor. i almost have to pump the clutch pedal in order to build pressure. however, for the rest of the day the clutch engages like normal if i keep driving it. is this a sign that my clutch slave cylinder is going out?

Yes. Mine was especially moody on cold mornings before slave #1 went out.
