Default Sputtering on steep inclines

Alright, you know I told ya'll that I sunk my 500 last weekend in the creek. Well I finally got it all cleaned back up and got to ride it this weekend. It seemed fine whenever I first started riding it, but when I got back on some harder trails it seemed to sputter and not have as much power when I was going up steep inclines. I did have to drain the carb bowl last weekend to get it back running right. Do ya'll think the carb needs futher cleaning or any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Pull the carb off and give it a good cleaning and blow everything out with air. Sounds like there is still some dirt in there....
