Default Newb here, TRX 200 carb problem?

My TRX 200 has been setting for a while, and I recently noticed gas dripping from the engine. I got a pan to catch the gas, checked the oil, and it was full of gas. My guess is that something like a float sticking could be the problem, but I am not that much of a mechanic, and know nothing about the carb on this machine. Do you guys have any ideas on what else it could be, or where I could find a diagram of the carb?

I have drained the gas/oil from the crankcase, and that is all I have done so far.
This Honda has been used lightly over the years (mostly just hunting season the last 10 years), is in very good condition (all original, fairly low hours), and is kept in a dry garage at all times. I've never had to replace anything on it except the battery and a set of rear tires because of a bad puncture that couldn't be repaired.

Appreciate any help or tips you guys might have, and I am an old guy, so the more info the better, LOL! Thank you!

Sounds like time for an carb overhaul. Kits are fairly cheap for these. If you are not very mech. incline, then I would take it somewhere to have it done. If she's been good to you this long, she deserves some attention. When ever I get off of my quads, I also shut the fuel off unless I am going to be restarting in the next few minutes.
