Late to this dance but I have two cents. The Madison is long, and the type of camping might help make suggestions. As mentioned Ennis or W. Yellowstone may be your bases of operation (groceries and what not). I personally recommend the Madison between Hebgen Lake and Ennis Lake. That is a long stretch of water with some super productive fishing lately, although it has been getting warmer and the fishing is getting slower in the afternoon. Below the damn on Hebgen all the way to Quake lake is quality there is a couple camp grounds right there near Beaver ck. Below Quake lake toward Ennis at Gold Butte there is a campground and again at Ruby Ck. these mentioned are all quality fishing accesses with camping facilities. There are many many more as you work down the maddy, most of the fishing access are at or near a campground. I would start high (Hebgen) and work your way down stream to Ennis camping at multiple spots.

This is a handy map reference that will steer you around and let you leave the beaten path with some confidence. Hint: checkout Wade and Cliff lake right in the area I suggested. Happy hunting.
First, don't use the freecampsites website. It will take you place people already are at and many which have "become a problem" and are now illegal. I've checked some of the places I've had unexpected run ins with cops. Many are listed as great spots on that site.

The best place to camp is the one you found yourself. The West is full of an unbelievable amount of public lands.
I strongly recommend maps. These:

I think I prefer the Delorme.
Hard copy maps in this day and age! Land ownership from public to private doesn't change often. These maps lay out land ownership much better than digital sources I have used.
