That's a lot of fence to cover! If you get annual vines, they will die back when winter hits. Some will reseed. If you get perennial vines, they need pruning once or twice a season, which may be more work than you bargained for. Here are some examples:

I would caution you against the trumpet creeper/trumpet vine. It suckers underground and comes up everywhere. Also there is a native wisteria that is not as aggressive as Japanese or Chinese wisteria.
