Lynn's run of consecutive away matches without a win extended to 13 following defeat at the hands of the Glovers.
With Ryan Jarvis, Elkan Baggott and Rory McAuley missing from the line-up, Lynn named three substitutes, one of them being assistant manager Paul Bastock who celebrates his 51st birthday in the coming week.
Once again it was mistakes in the Lynn defence that resulted in their downfall.
Yeovil had the first chance on four minutes when a Tom Knowles' corner found Billy Sass-Davies but he could only volley over.
Three minutes later Lynn had their first chance but Alex Kiwomya's shot from the edge of the box went straight to home keeper Adam Smith.
The home side took the lead on nine minutes when former Glover Tai Fleming played a loose ball across the defence only for Knowles to intercept and finish with ease past Theo Richardson.
Another piece of sloppy defending, this time Michael Gash losing possession, allowed Yeovil in again and after a fine passing movement Knowles was on hand to finish from the edge of the area with a curling shot that gave Richards no chance.
A Kiwomya cross was turned in by Simeon Jackson only to be ruled offside and at the other end a 19th minute free kick from Luke Wilkinson was well held by Richardson
Lynn got themselves back into the game on 23 minutes from the penalty spot. Michael Gyasi had been grounded by Wilkinson and Jackson scored from the resultant kick.
Heavy rain was making play difficult with heavy tackles and slips common.
Lynn began to see more of the possession but chances were at a premium for the visitors while the home side had efforts by Josh Neufcille and a Carl Dickinson free kick saved by Richardson.
Just before the break Kyle Callan-McFadden picked up his tenth booking of the season.
The second half lacked the goalmouth action of the first. Tyler Denton had an effort from distance which went just wide of the post
and Callan-McFadden had a header which went straight to the hands of Smith.
Sonny Carey came closest to scoring for Lynn on 70 minutes his effort beating Smith but Wilkinson was on hand to clear off the line.
The game was put beyond the Linnets on 85 minutes when the two home substitutes combined on the counter with Emmanuel Sanupe scoring.
The final chance fell to Lynn but Gash's header struck the bar.
