Heat canola oil to 350° in deep pan. Dredge the fish or seafood in the batter mix or cornmeal dredge; shake off excess breading. Fry until cooked through and golden brown. Drain well in a fry basket or on paper towels. Use immediately.
For each sandwich: Split baguette part way through, leaving a hinge. Open bread and slather 2 tablespoons seafood sauce on the bottom. Add one-quarter of the warm fish or seafood, then cover with 1/2 cup lettuce, 2 tomato slices, and 3 pickle slices and spread the remoulade across the top. Serve immediately. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Catfish Po-Boy shown.
