    Thanks ya'll for replying. I don't think I have sand blowing back in from the pump but I can tell you this I saved the sock or panty hose that I used with my catfish the other day let it dry out. WELL CRAP! I just went outside to get it to describe it and it had blown in the pool this morning so it's wet again! But today wet and all, fished up from the bottom of the pool it is grey in color, kinda clumped up wet, has no gritty feel, is not leaving anything on my fingers, and kinda has the consistency of brick morter (concrete) but not gritty. Today I finally found the test kit... my PH is not registering which means the chlorine is out of wack. Akaline is perfect. So before I freak over this gunk I'm going to balance the pool, vaccum and see what happens. Sound like a plan to ya'll? What have I got to loose right? If I have problems after tomorrow I will certainly take the advice of the greatest moderators. I really believe it's a combo of a small amount of algae that dumped when I took the cover off and the constent wind were having in Dallas this month 20-25mph everyday darn near. Pollen and junk in the air. Thanks for the advice!

    You're welcome. Post some numbers and we'll help you go from there. By the way, if you don't have a good test kit, do yourself a favor and get one. The one we recommend is the Taylor K-2006 or 2006C. You can pick it up for a pretty good price in the testkit link in my signature below.
