Why is my onPrepareOptionsMenu not getting a call?

public class BFragmentTab extends Fragment {

    @Override
     public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            // Inflate the layout for this fragment
            return inflater.inflate(R.layout.recents, container, false);
     }

    @Override
    public void onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        menu.clear();
        MenuItem filter = menu.findItem(R.id.filter);
        MenuItem refresh = menu.findItem(R.id.refresh);
        //depending on you conditions, either enable/disable
        filter.setEnabled(false);
        refresh.setEnabled(false);
        super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);
    }
}

I am trying to call mine onPrepareOptionsMenuinside my Fragment class, but it does not receive it. I want to update my menu item when I click action tabinside mine action bar.
