Disrupt sun shelf return debris island?

[toddclare]

Hey all, my sun shelf has a round return in the floor that causes a whirlpool on the surface that traps debris and pollen. Was thinking that if I could make the return flow asymmetrical it might disrupt the trap and let this stuff make it to the skimmer. Any ideas how or cautions against?

As an aside, my dog is terrified of The Great Sun Shelf Pollen Patch and growls and barks at if warily as she walks by it.

That’s kinda fascinating. Grab a net and scoop it all out at once?

I'm picturing it spinning like it's a portal to another dimension on a cheesy low budget show on the SciFy channel.

Pictures of the fitting would help. CMP directional flow outlet 25552-000-000 may work. Hayward slotted eyeball fitting SP1419A may work. CMP pool bubbler 25503-000-000 may work as well.
