Quick fuel filter question

Heres the rundown- 94 f150 4.9l 5 speed manual

Truck runs amazing but lately for the past two weeks its been actin funky. Drives just fine, plenty of power but when i get to hills or somewhere my truck has to work, it feels as if im haulin a load and slightly bogs and struggles to get up to speed. Its always been just fine goin up hills i could stay in 5th, now i have to downshift to 4th to get up them. Sometimes even does it on just a flat stretch. Slightly confused but im thinkin dirty fuel filter?

Thanks for any imput guys
