If it is in a pool on farmland, it is possible it could be a Gordian worm. These have a pale tan colour - slightly leathery appearance, very actively squirming.
If in a domestic pool, it is probably a small hoop worm blown in from nearby trees. In which case, proper chlorine treatment should suffice.
Your local museum will be able to identify them.

How do you keep worms out of swimming pool?
Pile a small line of crushed shells along the pool deck edge. The sensitive worm's tummies will prevent them from crossing over to the pool. The problem is the worms crawl out during rain, then when the rains stop, the worms dry out and head for the nearest source of water - your pool. Stop them from entering your pool deck area in the first place with crushed shells. Ian D.
We have an inground concrete salt water pool in Sydney have hundreds of brown lines an inch long in the pool look like dirt but when broken open hundreds of tiny red worms appear how do we get rid?
thats a bad idea to have an inground salt water pool in concrete. the salt water it self may eat away some parts of the concrete, plus the fact that its underground and contains salt it attracts worms. maybe you should pour alot of clorine in the pool to kill them, then empty out the water and start fresh.
