My largest perch is only a little over 15 inches, but a good place to find much bigger perch than that is in Lake Gogebic in Michigan's Upper Penninsula. the biggest ones are mostly caught thru the ice and they call them "Teeter Hogs". I usually fish this lake a couple times a year (it is about an 8 hour drive from my home), but I focus on walleyes.
