RPM surge

I have a 1997 Yamaha 150HP Saltwater II. While running at about 3/4 throttle, I will experience a short rpm surge. Then the engine will return to it's normal rpms. It will only last a second or two. It may occur two or three times while on a ten mile run. Also I may get the same surge just as I begin to throttle down. I thought it might be a problem with a fuel filter or throttle linkage.
 
How well do you take care of your gas.You should chek filters but if you run ethanol fuel and you have carbs thats where I'd put my money.
