[Question]Are my rods suitable for fishing with soft plastics?

Question

Hey guys,

I typically fish for bullseye snakeheads in India using spinning rod setup with top water frogs, mepps spinners or crankbaits using braided line. I see the vids on youtube which show ppl using soft plastics to get them.

I want to try it out with a grub or a minnow texas rig style or dropshot on a day where I'm not getting bites. I am not well educated on the sort of rods that will be required.

Here are the two rods in my arsenal

I also own an 8 feet shakespeare contender.

Are these suitable for softplastic fishing or need a rod with high sensitivity to detect bites?

Thanks
