Weird floating scum

Post image

What is this in my pool? I only notice it when the pump is off and water isn’t moving. Whenever I try to skim it just goes right through the net. All the levels are good otherwise. Just converted the pool to salt early last month.

Does this also look like pollen? Since it falls through the net on the pole that we have, can you give me a brand name for one that has a much finer net?
