Default Polaris scrambler 400

Hi I have a Polaris scrambler 400 4x4. And today I was riding it and I notice the engine was acting like it wasn't warming up ,and about 15 min into riding it starts bogging out and I push the throttle and I can only go like 15 mph. Its acting like its starving for gas. I put premium gas in it usually but I used regular gas cause gas prices have gone up. So could that be why? Also I have a gas leak right under the tank. And the other day it looked like I saw some dirt in the gas tank not much but I tried to get it out but I couldn't get to it. so let me know what u think is wrong with it.

Before I did anything I'd do a compression check to eliminate this as a problem. If it's at least 120psi(hopefully more) then it could be trash in the fuel tank/carb.Only way to get all the dirt out of a tank is to drain it then flush it. Plus you can probably find the leak while you're at it.
