I have a Shimano TR100G reel that I've used a number of times, catching flounder and sea bass.  It's lightweight, which is good for jigging, but it takes some effort to crank up the fighting fish. It has the standard handle for this reel, which I measured to be 80 mm.  I'm thinking that a longer handle would improve this reel's cranking ability.  Shimano does not offer an alternative handle for this reel.  Here's my question:  Is there a handle out there somewhere that is longer and will fit this reel?

That's a pretty common size gear sleeve, so there should be several options online, eBay might be a good start
Do what you can with that you have where you are

Thanks, Swami805.  After reading your comment, I checked Ebay and didn't see anything stating that it would fit the TR100G, except for the standard handle for that reel.

Thanks, Alan. This seems to be what I'm looking for!  I'll look over your attachment and send you an email with the aim of purchasing the correct handle.
