Dowsing rod works, but you have to move slowly: only 1-2 tiles every time you get a reading.

"works"

Yes if used properly it leads you to squares, but in my experience these rarely allow wells.

I dowsed all around by base and tried 6-7 of the spots it pointed me to and each time it says the water still ran too deep when I actually tried placing the well.

It points you toward the highest point in the local watertable. Not necessarily to a point where you can build a well.
