so i won't be able to fully resolve this until i can craft a bucket?

if anyone can tell me why this is happening and how i can fix it, i would appreciate it. i'm new to the game and making my first farm next a lake. i started this in a small pond next to the lake. all of the blocks of water were filled in except for this corner. i thought maybe the water is volumetrically kept track of and there wasn't enough water and if they're all connected then it will even out like in real life so i connected these water troughs to the main body of the lake and it's still happening. not only that but in the connection trough there's a weird dip in the middle that widening it hasn't done anything to resolve.

reporting in that this also helped me big time
