Systems and methods presented herein generally relate to advanced fishing of downhole cables, for example, using camera assemblies to monitor the relative position of a fishing tool with respect to cable wire in substantially real time. For example, systems and methods presented herein include a fishing tool that includes a body portion having a plurality of wire grabbing elements extending therefrom. The wire grabbing elements are configured to penetrate and latch onto cable wire disposed within a borehole of an oil and gas well system. The fishing tool also includes one or more camera assemblies configured to capture images downhole with respect to the fishing tool within the borehole.
