My summer homebase South Fork, Colorado has several great fly fishing opportunities along the Rio Grande.
For full hookups right along a Gold Medal Trout section and right off hwy 160, http://www.southforkcampground.com/fly-fishing-rio-grandeThe South Fork Campground
For more rustic camping just upstream off hwy 149 is the NFS Palisade Campground, its only got 12 spaces and its very popular all summer.
Near my previous home town, Steamboat Springs, Co are 2 favorites, Steamboat Lake State Park, about 26 miles north of town on hwy 129, has camping right on the lake which is well stocked with several varieties of trout. Also nearby is the Yampa River State Park, just off hwy 40 west of Steamboat between Hayden to Craig.
Plenty more good camping & fly fishing spots in Colorado, but those are ones I've used.
