GeographyEdit
The Ougeotte rises in Ouge, which gives its name to the river. It flows generally east, receiving the Gailley at Chauvirey-le-Vieil, then the Écrevisses stream on the right of the ancient Agneaucourt mill, then joining the Saône at Gevigney-et-Mercey near Montureux-lès-Baulay.
Nowadays there are no more mills which take power from the Ougeotte, while at the beginning of the 19th century there were many:
In the 1840s, the Ougeotte was populated by burbot, pike, eel and perch. By 1960, it was fished for trout and crayfish.
