My thought is that when it rains heavy enough to be used, could that water be mixing with that bottom layer and making it less noticeably smelly.


It might need a LOT of rain to do that. I had enough rain to raise my pond (increase it's depth) by about 25% (pond rose about 36"). The thermocline went from 8' down to 14' feet, and there still was a couple of feet of water under that thermocline to the bottom of the pond.
