Question about fly fishing in Colorado

I’m not sure how to word this post… I’ve fallen in love with small stream fishing in Arizona. The way I often organize my flyfishing trips is: drive into a National Forest area, along forest roads, reach the stream, fish all day, then drive back out onto the forest road and find a place to pitch my tent and stay the night in the "Forest Camping Limit: 14 Days" zone, or otherwise a non fee-based campsite. My question is, are these sorts of logistics possible in Colorado?

My experience fishing in Colorado is basically nil, and I don’t really have a guide book to inform me on this yet. I do have "Fly Fishing the Rocky Mountain Backcountry", which I’d like to do sometime, but that sort of trip would probably involve backpacking all my gear to a remote campsite. I’m more interested in car camping, but I abhor fee-based campgrounds. So any help or info would be appreciated. Are there "Forest Camping Limit: 14 Days" zones along forest roads in Colorado like there are in Arizona?
