IMO until you take some erosion control measures, I suspect the pond will just keep getting muddy every time it rains or there is wave action on the shores. Every time more dirt washes in it is also filling in your pond and reducing its life. IMO I would not worry about the muddy water for now and would spend time/money on getting some grass going on the shores and maybe some stone placed in the heavy erosion areas. To me, your jar test indicates the pond will clear on its own once you get the erosion controlled.

Not a pro, Just my 1 cent

Good Luck,
