Default Motor running only at about half throttle...

Hey guys, I took the tracker out today and the motor wouldn't get much past half throttle. It was fine prior to getting to about half throttle, but there was just a point in there where if you gave it any more it would start running incredibly rough and unacceptable. So I drove basically just above planing speed today, and even then it felt like there would be split seconds where the fuel almost cut off. So what does this mean? I have a few ideas of what it could be, but yall know a lot more. I'm thinking the fuel pump could be bad or there could be a clog somewhere in the line, but where in that case would the trouble spots be? BTW, prior today I had a similar problem, but it only happened when I was just shy of full throttle, thus acceptable...so something has apparently gotten worse.

BTW, I ran seafoam through the carb about 3 weeks ago and this has only been the 2nd time she has been out since then.
