hydraulic clutch problems

i have a 96 ranger xlt 3.0 5spd and sometime the clutch gets hard and the truck barely moves no matter what gear you put it in...does this mean i need to bleed it? it comes and goes?

Check the clutch pedal linkage and bushings, might be binding in a certain position.

Is the truck always hard to shift even when the clutch is not hard? Or is the clutch hard and the truck is hard to shift only then?
