Propane lanterns often emit a yellow flame due to incomplete combustion. This can be caused by factors like insufficient oxygen supply or impurities in the fuel. To improve the light quality, ensure proper ventilation, use high-quality propane, and keep the lantern well-maintained. A bright white flame indicates more complete combustion and enhanced visibility while fishing.

Doesn't that suggest a blocked nozzle, requiring first a quick probe with a "pricker"?
SOURCE: how to fit a mantel to a coleman propane lantern
Hi, First remove the knurl nut on the top. Remove the top and then the glass globe. There are several types of mantels most of which tie with a string that is part of the mantel top. The newer ones have a wire clip in place of the string. Which ever type you had on before you need to remove the old pieces completely. Since the mantles burn to an ash they will disintegrate when touched but if it had the metal clip you need to remove it. Tie or clip the new mantle over the lip on the output orifice being careful with the screen underneath. Replace the glass globe and top, put the nut back on finger tight. Remember that the mantel turns into ash when it burns for the first time so keep the gas low to start it till the mantle forms properly ( in the first minute) Good Luck, this should Fixya!

clean the orfices and tubes and then if possible adjust your air mixture setting also
SOURCE: I have a coleman propane
Clean the hole in the tip of the generator, or turn the wire handle 360 deg. 2 or three times, and try to light the lantern with the wire handle in the down position.
I hope I was some help? Cheers David dwfarrell@gruvy.com

You propane tube probably has a wax build up . Propane has a natural wax in it and sometimes builds up when you got a bad batch.
Perhaps you are accustomed to using white gas(naptha).propane doesn't burn as bright
