Acorn vacuuming

Looking for a good suction or electric pool cleaner that will vacuum acorns. My Zokiac MX8 will not pick them up due to opening too small. Normally just clogs it up. I see where the Dolphin Premier has a leaf bag but I am not clear how it works picking up acorns.
 
I have one pool with oaks and oaks, pretty it is all summer but come fall like this year and there was non stop acorns in the pool. Had to do a soft close as the owners were away but before that was done I had their pressure side polaris running (older, inherited from previous home owners) and was delighted to see how well it sucked them up.

The maytronics robots pick them up fine. I have the nautilus CC plus. Here’s what my pool looks like most mornings here lately. LOTS of acorns…
