Water Gardening: Need any thoughts on my mud filled pond, 1 by caganimalover

There is a little area with some dirt residue on the flagstone (to the right in the photo) but NOTHING compared to what is in the pond. It's really confusing. That's why I don't know which way to go to DO anything to fix the problem. I WISHED it had done the monsoon act during the light of day so I could narrow it down further.

At one time we watched it pour from the side (there where I put the 3 lines of rocks) then out the corner where the large rock, at the bottom, meets the wall on the right.

Suppose it is coming in under the waterfall liner at the top; Any ideas on how to verify that and if verified, what to do to fix it?
(The liner was laid on the ground and the rocks placed on top.)

This is a picture of the first time (March 2006) it rained hard (similar to a mini monsoon, like last night) and the water was hitting the flowerbed wall and sending the muddy water onto the porch and patio. Then the water was definitely muddy and mud was everywhere unlike this time when there is not all the tons of mud all over the patio. After that we created barriers with rocks and dirt to try and alter the direction of the water run-off. ~~~ Carol
