Unicorn Lake is located on the Unicorn Branch, a tributary to the Chester River in Queen Anne's County, Maryland, one mile south of the town of Millington. The lake has existed for more than 100 years, formed when a dam was constructed for a woolen mill some time around 1860. In 1961 the lake and surrounding grounds were purchased by the State of Maryland for the sum of one dollar. The lake is managed as a largemouth bass and bluegill fishery. Quality fishing for both of these species exists within the lake. Anglers may occasionally catch other species including: chain pickerel, pumpkinseed sunfish, green sunfish, channel catfish, brown bullhead catfish, black crappie, yellow perch, white perch, American eel and creek chubsucker. Other fish species that are found in the lake include: margined madtom, eastern mud minnow, pirate perch and blacknose dace. The Unicorn dam tailrace provides excellent spring fishing for bluegill, white perch, blueback herring, and yellow perch.
