On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the bread crumbs with the oil, seafood seasoning, and ½ teaspoon salt. Toast in oven, tossing once, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a shallow bowl and wipe out the baking sheet. In a second shallow bowl, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon water. Working with a few pieces at a time, dip the fish in the beaten eggs (shaking off any excess), then coat with the bread crumbs (pressing gently to help them adhere). Place in a single layer on 2 large parchment-lined large baking sheets. Bake the fish sticks until crisp and opaque throughout, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve with the coleslaw and ketchup. The uncooked fish sticks can be frozen for up to 3 months. First freeze them on the baking sheets until firm, then transfer to freezer bags. To cook, bake from frozen on parchment-lined baking sheets until crisp and opaque throughout, 18 to 20 minutes.
