Default Leak question

This is what I think is happening. I was in the pond earlier this evening,
trying to force air or water or whatever is making the big "bump" under the
liner and lifting it up. I figured if I stepped on the bubble, I could see
the water coming back in through the hole. Instead, I saw an eddy in the
middle of the pond, right over where I was standing. My son thinks I made a
new hole, but I don't. It's been over an hour, and the water isn't any
lower.

Not likely, but possible. The leak is probably at the level the pond

drains
to, and a very thorough search of that level is called for. It is

possible
that the water table is high enough that the pond will only leak to a

given
level, because if it tried to leak lower water would run back into the

pond.

Is it possible for a leak in the bottom of the pond to only drain the

water
down to a certain dept, and not empty the whole pond?
