What month is it?

Fished Newport on Tuesday for 2 whole bass. WTH month is this anyways? I swear I thought it was July. Had perfect overcast, some current, and the water felt pretty warm. Not sure what's up. Launched at 6:30am to almost slack tide and headed for the bait barge figuring I'd ride the tide in. Well after almost 2hrs (and three bites) of waiting I headed in for the moored boats hitting docks along the way. Finally hit the boats and started getting bit every once in a while. The current was there a bit, the fish just weren't biting. After a couple hours of no fish and few bites I moved to the channel. Same deal, but no bites. Made my final move to the shoal/buoy line by the USCG launch. In an hour I pulled 2 spotties, lost another to a rock, and farmed another. Then that bite died off and I headed home with my head between my legs.

The fish I did get fell to a 3" scampi in rootbeer/gold flake. The Yamamoto Swimmin' Senko in pearl got bit, but didn't get any takers. The rest of the kitchen sink pretty much went untouched.

But, it was better than working at least.
