Does it pick up sand?

yes...I am getting sand in my pool even though I do not have a sand filter????? That is one of the reasons I bought it!

will it pick up thick wet leaves and pine needles that were dropped over winter? Pool was not closed properly.

It will pick up some, put not a whole lot at a time You will have to keep dumping quite often. I have a 14ft above ground pool, and it is perfect for that size, I love this vac.

Do I need to purchase the pole separately?

Yes. We used a 1" PVC conduit length and duct taped along side. The actual handle hole diameter does NOT meet standard USA sizes (it is made in China), and ONLY intex I believe has that pole which will fit inside this vacuum's handle. Otherwise, you will have to Jerry Rig a long pole as we have done last few years. ONLY problem, is they need to make the attaching head/filter piece better, as repeating the half turn head the plastic fins will break making the vacuum no longer useful, and why we are forced to buy another after 3 years...

What powers the catfish pool cleaner?

mine only charged by internal rechargable , guess it got wet somewhere along the line. Will not recharge, but going to get another because it works lots better than intex vac
