Smile have to push clutch pedal closer to floor as day goes hotter

my clutch works fine all the way to work,(25 miles in the morning).About 1/3 the way home the pedal has to be pushed to the floor to shift.I did the bench bleed on master vid.seems like it works when cool but not when hot.Any suggestions? Thanks guys!
