For yellow/mustard algae, it likes to grow in shady areas so check under any removable ladders (if the pool were a plaster pool, then I'd have you check behind light niches, but I assume with your vinyl pool that you don't have those). If you don't kill it at its source, it'll come back unless you keep the chlorine at a higher level (around 15% of the CYA level for maintenance; shock level is 60% of the CYA level) which can be impractical as it is more costly.
