Dug the holes yesterday and it rained overnight.

Not sure how the dirt got muddy but know what you are saying. Let it dry out before tamping or bring in some dry dirt.

fence posts should be set onto a bed of about 4 - 7" of gravel. then pack around it with more gravel, pack it with your tamper bar and voila.
